Why my cron job runs every 10 seconds? - liferay-6

Environment: Liferay 6.1
In my liferay-portlet.xml I have this cron job:
<scheduler-entry>
<scheduler-event-listener-class>com.shorex.b2b.web.billing.IndexJob</scheduler-event-listener-class>
<trigger>
<cron>
<cron-trigger-value>0 0 6 1/1 * ? *</cron-trigger-value>
</cron>
</trigger>
</scheduler-entry>
This expresion "0 0 6 1/1 * ? *" means that there is a process which will be execute once every day at 6:00:00.
The problem is that this process is been executed since 6:00:00 every 10 seconds. that is, at 6:00:00, 6:00:10, 6:00:20, 6:00:30...
Could anyone tell me why is it happening?

<cron-trigger-value>0 0 6 ? * *</cron-trigger-value>
thats every day at 6.

crontab executing hour apart , both set to BST: 2 servers. Why?

I've just moved servers and have overlap on crontabs running.
Both servers set to BST, but one sends me a log at
08:00 BST the other old one 09:00 BST
The crontab entry for both is
0 9 * * * /root/phpmaillog.sh > /dev/null 2>&1
Mystery?

TechWell TW6869 driver does not generate interrupts on embedded device

I'm trying to get a Techwell TW6869 driver to work. This PCIe-chip is able to capture analog video signals. Therefore I'm using a driver which can be found here: GitHub
The chip is connected to a Freescale imx.6 processor which is running Angström distribution. The driver already worked on the target but I didn't use it for some time and somehow it doesn't do it's job anymore.
So what I did, was implementing kernel messages in the beginning of each function so I know what does happen exactly. Finally I found out, that no PCIe Interrupt is generated anymore. Though the interrupt is registered which I found out here:
root#freescaleimx6:~# cat /proc/interrupts | grep tw6869
155: 0 0 0 0 GIC tw6869
Running something on the videodevice unfortunately does not generate an interrupt.
root#freescaleimx6:~# gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src device=/dev/video2 ! imxipuvideosink

This could also possibly help (does it?)

Does anyone have an idea?

top CPU consumers using ps command

What is the difference between two commands, pls help to explain it.
ps -ef|sort +6|tail
oracle 55676 1 0 03:06:16 - 0:36 oracleprod (LOCAL=NO)
oracle 24876 1 0 02:52:56 - 0:40 oracleprod (LOCAL=NO)
oracle 41616 1 0 07:00:59 - 0:44 oracleprod (LOCAL=NO)
oracle 43460 1 0 02:45:05 - 0:53 oracleprod (LOCAL=NO)
oracle 25754 1 0 08:10:03 - 1:01 oracleprod (LOCAL=NO)
ps -ef|sort +5|tail
root 5440 2094 0 Nov 21 - 0:47 /usr/sbin/syslogd
root 9244 1 0 Nov 21 - 3:26 ./pcimapsvr.ip -D0
root 10782 1 0 Nov 21 - 4:41 ./pciconsvr.ip -D0
Why do both commands show different processes ? And if I keep on changing the value of 'sort +3' or reduce, the processes keeps on changing. What exactly is command all about ? Please help to explain.
You are sorting the wrong columns using both an obsolete syntax and a wrong method. No surprise random processes show up.
You'll get the top consumers that way:
ps -ef | sort -n -k8 | tail
-n means sort numerically
-k8 means sort the the eight column (cumulative execution time)

Cron job doesn't run (Perl & Centos)

In my /etc/crontab file I write:
* * * * * PLACK_ENV=development -I /home/adrian/app/lib/ /home/adrian/app/script/db/log_to_db.pl
To make a cron job run every minute. The job is running the log_to_db.pl perl script, which inserts data to my database.
When I run in my terminal
PLACK_ENV=development -I /home/adrian/app/lib/ /home/adrian/app/script/db/log_to_db.pl
It's OK! The script runs.
But the cron job isn't working!
What can be wrong?
PD: My script starts like
#!/usr/bin perl
....
My cron log prints:
Jul 8 20:29:01 dev0001 crond[1829]: (*system*) RELOAD (/etc/crontab)
Jul 8 20:29:01 dev0001 crond[1829]: (CRON) bad username (/etc/crontab)
Jul 8 20:30:01 dev0001 crond[1829]: (*system*) RELOAD (/etc/crontab)
Jul 8 20:30:01 dev0001 crond[1829]: (CRON) bad username (/etc/crontab)
Jul 8 20:30:01 dev0001 CROND[13504]: (root) CMD (/usr/lib64/sa/sa1 -S DISK 1 1)
You need a username when putting it in the system crontab
* * * * * adrian PLACK_ENV=development -I /home/adrian/app/lib/ /home/adrian/app/script/db/log_to_db.pl
But as #jithin said, putting this in your user crontab (crontab -e) might make more sense.
Don't edit the crontab file directly. Instead use crontab -e and add the cron entry.

schtasks /change

I wan't to change the repeat time from one task from 5 minutes to 1 minute. The task is there:
Folder: \
HostName: ZSERVER
TaskName: \Check_IIS_Server
Next Run Time: 04.10.2012 16:30:45

Now my change command is, i wan't to edit the repeat time to one minute:
C:\Users\username>schtasks /change /tn "Check_IIS_Server_Poly" /ri 1
ERROR: The parameter is incorrect.
Why did I can't edit this job over command?
Thanks,
Horst
You need to provide full path to the task, in your case it'll be \Check_IIS_Server. I don't see anything else that could be wrong here.
I create a task (schtasks /change /mo 1 /tn "Test") with repeat time one minute and edit the other settings manuell.
