That's possible. I'll check when I get back home.

My first inclination is that it's a file permissions error with crontab, where the server can't read it because of access issues. That's what happened to me once, though knowing what to change it to, I forget.

Hello,
I'm having some strange issues with my crontab. I've got this line in there, which has worked for months: 0 */2 * * * cronsub -s HersfoldArbClerkBot % java -jar HersfoldArbClerkBot.jar > HersfoldArbClerkBot.out
Last night I replaced the jar in question with a new version (same name, location, etc.); since then, it doesn't appear that it's been running or even attempting to run. Usually when it fails to run I get an email, or at the very least something should be entered in that .out file; unfortunately I got no emails, and the file didn't exist, yet my bot didn't make any edits until I started it manually a short while ago. It should have run just now at 16:00 UTC, but again, no dice. Is there something wrong with cron where it's stopped functioning correctly?
