Hey Jone!

This is close, but very slightly wrong. `mcron-service-type` isn't
a procedure, so you can't call it like that. You have to use
`service`:
(service mcron-service-type
(mcron-configuration (jobs (list fstrim-job))))
The manual instead uses the `mcron-service` procedure, which I can
see you tried below...
> ...
> (mcron-service (mcron-configuration (jobs (list fstrim-job))))
> ...
... but in this case, you need to not wrap the jobs in
`mcron-configuration`. So something like this should work:
(mcron-service (list fstrim-job))
This is outlined in the manual in (guix) Scheduled Job Execution.
Were you looking elsewhere in the manual for your examples? If
there's something that pointed you in the wrong direction, please
let me know where so I can fix it up.
I hope that helps!
Carlo

Did you use `mcron-service' around `mcron-service-type'?

`mcron-service' takes a list of jobs as argument, not an mcron-configuration.
From the manual:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
-- Scheme Procedure : mcron-service JOBS [#:mcron MCRON]
Return an mcron service running MCRON that schedules JOBS, a list
of gexps denoting mcron job specifications.
This is a shorthand for:
(service mcron-service-type
(mcron-configuration (mcron mcron) (jobs jobs)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
So for you needs you'd need something like:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(services (cons*
(mcron-service (list fstrim-job))
...)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Hope that helps! :)

Yes, it was only my mistake, I was in a hurry =) Now «(mcron-service (list
updatedb-job fstrim-job))», reconfigure Ok.
But only it still does not work! At first, ps ax | grep mcron
292 ? Ssl 0:00
/gnu/store/9dl8l4krszdd1dhaw94da0nv28ap8dvp-mcron-1.1.1/bin/mcron

7530 ? Z 0:00 [mcron] <defunct>
11714 ? Z 0:00 [mcron] <defunct>
Secondly rottlog was never launched («(service rottlog-service-type
(rottlog-configuration))» - right?).
For me, this is not a problem, I just remove mcron from the system
configuration and will start it at user
as «mcron -d». But I think I should have told about this.

Hi Jone,
The --schedule option will help you debugging it.
You can do for example:
/gnu/store/9dl8l4krszdd1dhaw94da0nv28ap8dvp-mcron-1.1.1/bin/mcron \
/gnu/store/vvf3frpvrffpchbd3xxlq8kmnxsywja6-mcron-job \
/gnu/store/jv9asgfm82f6k7srwxy6bf9ckk70z270-mcron-job \
/gnu/store/n4jbzmm6ihv70dd8j2ba9501hxs3q9ar-mcron-job \
/gnu/store/2yql34psrh6iiyczs48hj7pw5bgv6gh6-mcron-job --schedule=10
It will compute the times the commands would be run and prints the
information to the screen, and then immediately exits.
See https://www.gnu.org/software/mcron/manual/mcron.html#Invoking-mcron.
