Tried that. Nothing much in there.

My logwatch and logrotate are not running at all. Any idea?

[root@www ]# ls -la /etc/cron.daily/0logwatch lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Apr 17 11:36 /etc/cron.daily/0logwatch -

...

/usr/share/logwatch/scripts/logwatch.pl

[root@www ]# ls -la /etc/cron.daily/logrotate -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 180 Jan 7 00:42 /etc/cron.daily/logrotate

is crond running? As the previous person said, checking /var/log/cron is a start. If there's no entries in this, then crond is probably not running. If there are entries, then there's probably some kind of message. Also check you have a way to get mail off that box if you're forwarding mail in /etc/aliases to somewhere else...

You can check it by:

/sbin/service crond status

Thanks alot to all and your suggestions. Somehow, cron was not running.
