accretor : 23/09/02 01:50 PM : Incident created -   Hi! After clean install (formatted the system partitions) the slocate.cron in /etc/cron.daily is missing. Was it corrected in RC3? Cheers, Michael
Linegod_7611 : 23/09/02 02:22 PM : Reply received -   slocate.cron was moved to cron.weekly, since so many users with underpowered machines complained that it took over the system if they didn't keep it on overnight. Most people just move it from cron.weekly to cron.daily, if they want it done daily. ----- Note: If this answer resolves your problem, please remember to close this incident.
accretor : 23/09/02 07:07 PM : More info provided -   But then I shouldn't get a "warning" that my database is more than 8 days old, should I? (Remark: this laptop is not running everyday and not running linux everyday either)
Linegod_7611 : 24/09/02 06:02 PM : Reply received -   Did you check to see if slocate was in /etc/cron.weekly ? And can you check the timestamp on /var/lib/slocate/slocate.db ------ Note: If this answer resolves your problem, please remember to close this incident.
