avast.vpsupdate
« on: October 16, 2015, 02:56:45 AM »
Good day.
Every time as avast.vpsupdate starts (every 3 hours by cron in my case) I receive email from cron:
Subj: Cron <avast@server> /var/lib/avast/Setup/avast.vpsupdate
Body: standard in must be a tty

Is it Error?

Most probable you have enabled the requiretty setting in /etc/sudoers for root.
As the update script is running from cron (thus with no tty) and uses sudo to run
under the "avast" user, this will not work.
