I have several cron jobs defined like this:
10,20,30 * * * * root /some_script

after upgrading from v24 sp1 to 13525
Cron is not working anymore, the script does not get executed.

What is the reason for this and how can it be fixed?

Regards,
Drazen

After you upgraded...did you hard reset, and reissue/resave the script.

If memory serves me correctly, the location for the cron jobs changed from SP1 to 13525...but I don't remember the details as to when that change happened.

I added the jobs to web interface like this:

Additional cron jobs:
29 * * * * root /tmp/script_to_execute
59 * * * * root /tmp/script_to_execute

However the script does not get executed at all.
If I try to execute script manually, it works.
Why is that?

*/29 * * * * root /tmp/script_to_execute
*/59 * * * * root /tmp/script_to_execute
