I have a webapp running on an ubunti vps.Cron is scheduled to run a task evry sunday morning, however, I found it ran once and not again the next week. I have been reading about cron and how to troubleshoot but need help understanding what is shown when I run sudo systemctl status cron.
Please describe what the lines below are telling me.Is there a reason it only ran my script once?
