I have problem with atd daemon. If at is called by non-root, it creates task, but it is empty (content of /var/spool/atd). I do not remember what I have done before it broke that way. What else information should I provide and what what should I try to do?

atd is probably logging an error into your syslogs, look in /var/log/ for errors from atd. – jsbillings Dec 18 '12 at 16:11
Unfortunatelly no. For atd it is not error, just empty script. – KAction Dec 18 '12 at 16:25

Hmmm, simple thing to check: df. Are you running out of disk space? Remember that the last few percent is reserved for root. – derobert Dec 18 '12 at 17:07
Great! I was really out of space. – KAction Dec 18 '12 at 17:50
