I can run the tests manually (/opt/freenats/server/bin/tester.sh) and it runs fine and is reflected in the web interface but the tests do not run automatically. I have the Node test interval set to 1 minute and the individual test intervals set to 0.

Any ideas

Hi there,

Are you using the Virtual Appliance or have you installed it onto your own Linix/Unix installation?

The tester is run automatically through cron. If you are using the VM then it should all be setup already, perhaps have a look at /var/log/messages and see if cron is generating an error. You can also try: /etc/rc.d/init.d/crond status

And see if it is running ok.

If your own install then I would guess cron is not running the script.

Let me know what your environment is.

Regards,

Dave.

I am not running the VM. I assume then that the cron setup is not part of the install. Is it just the tester script that has to be run from cron?

Thanks for the hint of the cron job. I have added the cron job and it is now working fine. Thanks.

Ok good stuff - glad it's working.

Cheers,

Dave.
