I have a simple system set up in virtualbox, mostly to browse and torrent. Rarely have major problems. Recently I realized that cron was not working when flexget was not activated as expected. A check of journalctl threw up repeated instances of the following:

I use autologin to console (and then to X via bash_profile) and there is no glitch except that I find that getting to desktop takes a little longer these days. Thought it is due to psd. I have no idea when this happened as things have been OK.
Any advice? I suspect that cron's failure is due to this issue though honestly I have no basis to think so. Systemctl shows cronie.service loaded and running. System is up to date.

With all the changes over the past year, I have been wanting to set up a fresh installation to remove any old issues that might not have been properly dealt with over time. This current issue, and the fact that the move to consolidate everything to /usr/bin has happened, tilted the balance.
New installation, login is OK, no repeated messages from systemd-logind, cronie is working.
Why the problems, I have no idea. But the new installation is working well.

Before systemd this problem was not exist
At present old systems cannot be updated similar Windows, and must be reinstalling???
This is very sad:(

Closing this thread.
It never gained any traction. It is an old thread. The assertion in the previous thread is incorrect. And, I believe, the OP dealt with it with a re-install. Not much point in continuing.
