#11633 playbook `base` role failure on F39
Closed: Fixed by praiskup. Opened by praiskup.

On a fresh F39 machine, the following base task fails:

TASK [base : setup blocklist update cron job] ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

fatal: [copr-be-dev-temp.aws.fedoraproject.org]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Failed to find required executable \"crontab\" in paths: /root/.local/bin:/root/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin"}

It seems like cronie is not installed !!
Did you check the existence of package ??

At least it can be installed with https://pagure.io/fedora-infra/ansible/blob/main/f/roles/copr/base/tasks/main.yml

Don't have permission, could you try to run copr role ?

Can confirm that on a fresh Fedora 39 AMI crontab is not installed as it is part of cronie.

[fedora@ip-172-31-24-38 ~]$ crontab
-bash: crontab: command not found

#1652 should fix ths.

Thank you for the fix!
