about file in /var/spool/cron/tmp
we have a server, which cron daemon will abnormal frequently, I notice that there are about 186 empty files in /var/spool/cron/tmp, what are they for ? can i delete them ?
the behavior before cron daemon abnormal, always cron queue too large, then the daemon abort, but we only have 5 entries in root's crontab, and only root have the cron permission.
How can I solve this issue ? Thank you.

Re: about file in /var/spool/cron/tmp
As far as your issues with the cron daemon - need more information. Can you expand on "cron queue too large", and "then the daemon abort"?

You can surely delete those files.

300 simultaneously cronjobs is to high --> 20 is more then enough. change last line into
c.20j1n
and stop en start the crondaemon.
#/sbin/init.d/cron stop/start

Re: about file in /var/spool/cron/tmp
It's probably fine to delete the null cron jobs.
To be on the safe side, check your system uptime and only delete the ones that have a date on them prior to your last reboot.
