PROBLEM
cron jobs are being rescheduled and not running. The message in the cron log is c queue max run limit reached [date & time] rescheduling a cron job [date & time]
RESOLUTION
The error:
! c queue max run limit reached Fri May 27 12:39:00 2011
! rescheduling a cron job Fri May 27 12:39:00 2011
! c queue max run limit reached Fri May 27 12:39:00 2011
! rescheduling a cron job Fri May 27 12:39:00 2011
c queue max run limit reached [date & time]rescheduling a cron job [date & time], corresponds to there being more than the maximum number of jobs running in the c queue than specified in “queuedefs”.
There was a problem with getspwent() which could cause the child cron processes to loop when they called getspwent().
