Topic: Curious cron.daily-message

[Willy Roesen]

This morning my cron mailed the following to me:

/etc/cron.daily/makewhatis.cron:
zcat: stdout: Broken pipe

The line was repeated more or less a 150 times, so - being a relativ newbie, I'm a bit worried.
Can anyone point me in the right direction ?

Greetings

A search for "cron.daily" would have found this.

I see !   I don't even have to dig - just scratch the surface. The thought never occurred to me !
But thank you - I've added another wrinkle of wisdom to my brow, and hopefully the problem will never come up again.
