After a cron<\/code> job has been created or has been added by a software package, you want to be sure whether the task has actually been scheduled and started.
\nA cron<\/code> is a daemon (in Windows terms services<\/code>) which performs scheduled tasks.<\/p>\n

Cron<\/code> does not have its own log. Presumably because cron<\/code> is integrated with the operating system. To check the status of the cron<\/code> jobs will have to check your status in the syslog<\/code> file. This can be found in \/var\/log\/syslog<\/code>.<\/p>\n

By default, only starting a cron<\/code> job registered.<\/p>\n

If you know the name of a cron<\/code> job and you want to know if it has started you can check this with the grep<\/code> command.<\/p>\n

grep -i ecu -r \/var\/log\/syslog<\/code><\/p>\n

Adding the -i option to the grep command makes the search value case insensitive.<\/p>\n

Do you want to know which cron<\/code> jobs all started there or you don't know the name of the cron<\/code> Job?
\nThen use the command cron service status<\/code>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"wiki_cats":[24,5],"wiki_tags":[25,26,27],"class_list":["post-185","yada_wiki","type-yada_wiki","status-publish","hentry","wiki_cats-cron","wiki_cats-raspberry-pi","wiki_tags-cron-jobs","wiki_tags-grep","wiki_tags-status"],"yoast_head":"\nControleren of een cron job is gestart - Bj\u00f6rn Meijer<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bjorn-meijer.nl\/en\/wiki\/check-if-a-cron-job-is-started\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Controleren of een cron job is gestart\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Nadat een cron job is aangemaakt of is toegevoegd door een softwarepakket wil je zeker weten of de taak ook daadwerkelijk is ingepland en gestart.
