I have my router scheduled to reboot 0345am every Sunday morning, after this morning's reboot there are messages in syslog that the restart_letsencrypt script is being run every five minutes.

It seems like it should be as there are these entries in crontab ...

Code:
cru l
15 4 * * * /jffs/scripts/regular-email #AGTxR#
*/2 * * * * /etc/openvpn/server1/vpn-watchdog1.sh #CheckVPNServer1#
*/10 * * * * /jffs/scripts/YazFi check #YazFi#
*/5 * * * * service restart_letsencrypt #LetsEncrypt#

But there's never been any entries in syslog before, any idea why they've just started or if they're a problem?
Everything, including OpenVPN server and DDNS, seems to be working OK.

A quick search of the forums shows the issue has appeared before, but without any obvious resolution.
 
Well, a restart fixed it, and some other stuff that was wrong.
I'll post another thread about it.
 
Just noticed something odd, after a reboot via 'service reboot', the crontab contents are now different...

Code:
cru l
15 4 * * * /jffs/scripts/regular-email #AGTxR#
*/2 * * * * /etc/openvpn/server1/vpn-watchdog1.sh #CheckVPNServer1#
39 5 */7 * * service restart_letsencrypt #LetsEncrypt#
*/10 * * * * /jffs/scripts/YazFi check #YazFi#

*/5 * * * * service restart_letsencrypt #LetsEncrypt#

has been replaced by ...

39 5 */7 * * service restart_letsencrypt #LetsEncrypt#
