issue: cron doesn't execute jobs
reason: /tmp/crontab is emtpy. gui configured jobs are located in /tmp/cron.d/cron_jobs
workaround: as startup command

on which device (serveral in sig)?
do you run scripts as cron job?
which file contains the jobs?
I run custom scripts on two R7800s, my Main GW Router and AP Router. All scripts are stored on a ext4 USB3 flash drive with /opt and /jffs directories. I also copy all scripts to a custom directory like /tmp/myscripts so Cron calls them from faster ram storage.
# At Startup copy scripts to ram drive
mkdir /tmp/myscripts
cp -r /jffs/etc/config/* /tmp/myscripts
Yesterday I upgraded to Build 42542 without issue.
UPDATE: just upgraded to Build 42557. _________________ Home Network on Telus 1Gb PureFibre - 10GbE Copper Backbone

off topic
are you really running ext4 USB3 flash drive with /opt
I always had a believe ext3 or 4 worn out flash drives and they are recommended
only for HDD ive no idea how to stop journaling in DDWRT and use ext 3 or 4 instead ext 2 on thumb drives... _________________ Atheros

I long time ago I read EXT4 was safe for flash. Linux installs on Flash Drives EXT4 is used. Looking at my USB Settings...

Router/Version: Netgear WNDR3400 v1/Version: 42514 Mode: A/P File: wndr4300-webflash.bin Kernel: Linux 3.18.140-d4 #71405 Tue Feb 25 06:00:57 +04 2020 mips Status: Running well, uptime 4days, OpenVPN client failing CPU: Atheros AR9344 ver 1 rev 1.2 (0x2122)
Added OpenVPN client
Added VAP with guest network, AP isolation, Net Isolation
works well
had to add Startup "sleep 60; iptables -I FORWARD --source <VAP IP> --destination <VPN IP> -j DROP" to keep the guest wireless from having access to the VPN
OpenVPN client fails after one hour. Soft restart, TLS handshake failed. Worked at start-up and had good VPN communication for one hour. This OpenVPN client config is certificate-based and works on this hardware under DD-WRT version 33986 for months on end (also #40276, #37908, and #37782 using different hardware). Attached syslog showing correct behavior and one showing this build's incorrect behavior, with problem area marked with sidebar.
