Seu crontab precisa de um nome de usuário para a última linha (mysqlcheck).
E: você pode querer mudar a senha de root do MySQL agora.
Eu vejo esse erro no meu crontab:
Dec 8 09:51:01 ikeyprod cron[29245]: Error: bad username; while reading /etc/crontab
Eu verifiquei que todos esses comandos podem ser enviados manualmente via sudo.
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.2K 2010-12-08 09:50 crontab
Esses comandos não estão sendo executados e não sei por que ... Estou vendo o erro acima, embora ...
