As you can see, it suppose to be kicking at 10 and 11 PM at night.
But instead, I got 3 emails at 5 PM yesterday at 5:01 PM, 5:16 PM, 5:31 PM.
I thought it was the time wrong the in system or VM so I checked it I saw UTC time.
Then, I update it by running sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
and set it to US Eastern time.
Now, when I ran date
command I got Ex.Thu Dec 15 07:56:27 EST 2016
correctly as US EST time.
Is there some service that I need to restart?
Or is this something other crontab settings that might have overwrite my current settings ?
I believe you have to restart cron after making time / time zone related changes.
Depending on your version of cron, you might be able to restart it with sudo service cron restart
.
