Incron Job not executing
 

Hi,

I want to maintain the same version of files on all my servers and to do this i am using master and slave pattern. If there is any changes made on the master file system i want the changes to be syncronized with the slave systems. I am using incron to monitor the file system on the server. In the incrontab -e i have added a command which will run a shell script if there is any changes made to folder on master which is monitored. But when i make changes on the folder in master command associated with incrond is not getting execute. Can anyone tell me how can i debug this.


line in incrontab -e : /usr/share/nginx/html IN_ALL_EVENTS sh /root/scripts/sync.sh

full path to the file that has to be monitored on master is : /usr/share/nginx/html

and when i try to see the log using the command : tail -f /var/log/cron

I get:
