Betreff: [Xymon] WG: clientlaunch.cfg: CRONDATE problem / error?
Hello,
i found an article describing how to patch a source code. I have created a file xymonlaunch.c.patch in the common directory from my xymon install directory. The file contains just this code:
--- trunk/common/xymonlaunch.c 2012/02/02 23:00:35 6905
+++ trunk/common/xymonlaunch.c 2012/02/07 10:19:43 6906
@@ -260,7 +260,8 @@
else if (curtask && (strncasecmp(p, "CRONDATE ", 9) == 0)) {
p+= 9;
xfreedup(curtask->cronstr,p);
- if (curtask->crondate) { crondatefree(curtask->crondate);curtask->crondate=parse_cron_time(curtask->cronstr); }
+ if (curtask->crondate) crondatefree(curtask->crondate);
+ curtask->crondate = parse_cron_time(curtask->cronstr);
if (!curtask->crondate) {
errprintf("Can't parse cron date: %s->%s\n", curtask->key, curtask->cronstr);
curtask->disabled = 1;
Then i did the following (with some errornous results):
[root at xymon common]# patch -p0 <xymonlaunch.c.patch
can't find file to patch at input line 3
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:

Hello,
Thank you for this information.
Unfortunately I don't know how to apply a patch or to re-compile xymonlaunch - can you point me to the right way to do this?
Best regards

This is fixed in trunk and the 4.3.7 branch, but isn't in the tarball.
http://xymon.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xymon?view=revision&revision=6906
http://xymon.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xymon?view=revision&revision=6899
This specific patch should fix it:

> LOGFILE $XYMONCLIENTHOME/logs/ xymoncheckscript-custom.log
> CRONDATE 0 11 * * *

> When restarting the xymon services on the client I get the following entry
> in clientlaunch.log:
>
> 2012-06-13 10:58:53 Can't parse cron date: xymoncheckscript-custom->0 11 *
> * *

> The man page of tasks.cfg has the section:

> month.
> ===============================================================

> For my understanding everything I've set up should work, but it doesn't.
