            Bug ID: 271582
           Summary: cron is not picking up schedule from file in
                    /usr/local/etc/cron.d directory unless you touch the
                    file
           Product: Base System
           Version: 13.2-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---

In FreeBSD 13.2, cron scheduler is not picking up file in
/usr/local/etc/cron.d/ that exists prior to cron daemon was started at boot
time. You need to touch the file to change the modified time and then the f=
ile
is picked up by cron scheduler. This seems to be a new behavior in Freebsd =
13
which wasn't the case in FreeBSD 12.3.=20

Were there any changes made in cron that affects this ?
