can you share a complete copy of syslog and a list of the cron jobs that appeared?

I think the problem you may run into is placement of the script. initial-start may be too early. (I see no problem with your actual script format though, it seems flawless.) placing cron scheduling task inside init-start seems to make cron buggy.

Working fine on my 86U and 68u with the full suite of scripts

I'm running on an AC86U also, don't know. All I know is I turned it on and rebooted, and some cron jobs didn't run, shut off, everything fine, turned on, same, shut off fine, tried again, same, off, fine. Now, each time I ran it and rebooted, there was a different set of cron jobs loaded....but not all. Once, only a few loaded, another time, 4, another time 6 (the one I posted above). There should be 13 on my system (+ 1 for watchdog or 14) if everything went correctly.

I'm not an expert, but this sounds right. Is there any issue placing the watchdog to run after all the other jobs are loaded? Then it would not interfere with the others?

There is no cron job added. It's literally a backgrounded script running in a loop.

Without a full syslog from a reboot attempt where things don't load, i can't begin to investigate what's going wrong for you, sorry.

A copy of init-start will also be helpful please

Hi @Jack Yaz, just wanted advice on how to upgrade to this version if I already have your "old" ntpbootwatchdog.sh running via init-start?

Edit: Think I answered my own question - I went ahead and played around, looks like what you've added to scMerlin is identical to the old "manual" ntpwatchdog script anyway, so I'm up and running on v2.3.0, thanks!

Yup, same script as I posted previously, just automated the "install" of the manual steps I posted before. This is why I'm confused one user is having issues as the script has been knocking around on the forums for a while

everything fine here Jack - using ntpbootwatch on AC86U and AX86U

Yep, I've been running it without issues since a couple of days after you published it, on an RT-AC86U and then (when that unit got hit by a power surge/lightning) for the last few weeks on the replacement RT-AX86U ... scripts as below in my signature.

So init-start is just 1 line (before turning on watchdog script)
#!/bin/sh

So, I tried it again, went to scMerlin, turned watchdog script on, clicked the save button, rebooted my router..........and everything loaded OK this time! I really didn't do anything different. I can not explain it.

I won't make any changes and reboot again in a few minutes and see if everything runs normally.

JohnD5000 · Jun 1, 2021

So I rebooted, again, 4 or 5 cron jobs did not load

init-start is:
#!/bin/sh

sh /jffs/scripts/ntpbootwatchdog.sh & # scMerlin

My whole syslog is as follows (it seems like there should be more but this is all there is

Syslog is only 89 lines, too long to post in one post so I will split it to 2

Is cronjob name or description limited to single string of word? I just realized everyone is doing it this way. I have a few of my own cronjob with my simple few words description. Looks like each word get into a column. I will chance my description and check again.

Update: Manage to get it to display correctly now.

i parse cron by spaces so spaces in the name would throw things!

something is really not right with syslog. do you use scribe/uiscribe? if not, what log levels are set?

Hello,

Tried install scMerlin on my Ac86 router yesterday but failed to get the gui working.
Today I gave it Another go but gui still not recognized/loaded.

Tried changing the adress manually, and as I tested

http://192.168.1.1/user5.asp

The scMerlin gui actually loaded. But there we're no tab or anything but all content looked OK!

The menuTree.js file is initially backed up to /tmp/ and changed so I checked it, but no entries for scMerlin were there.

So I checked /www/require/modules/menuTree.js and of course there is no entry there either. So I updated it manually:

Code:

{
menuName: "Addons",
index: "menu_Addons",
tab: [
{url: "user2.asp", tabName: "Unbound"},
{url: "user5.asp", tabName: "scMerlin"},
{url: "javascript:window.open('/ext/shared-jy/redirect.htm','_blank')", tabName: ">
{url: "NULL", tabName: "__INHERIT__"}
]
}

Quickly checked the gui, and it is now there, in the right place (in all its glory)!
Back to ssh and for curiosity I checked the /tmp/menuTree.js (the one I didn't touch) and to my surprise, my added entry is now in this file aswell. How is that happening? Is there som other script hogging this file, preventing scMerlin from editing?

All scripts I have (wireguard, unbound, yazfi, skynet, diversion) are up to date.

I can't reboot now but will try in a couple of hours. I'm guessing that the gui page will be gone again.

tenner says its unbound gui's fault. run sgui in unbound_manager to check for any updates, that's the old tab URL for the redirect page

I use scribe and uiscribe. Usually, when I reboot, there are 1300-1400 or so lines, but when the watchdog script was on, I was only getting 80-90 lines.

That's really bizarre. Can you try checking /tmp/syslog.log to see if it has anything more that's not in the ui for whatever reason?
