What to do when Meteohub stays on "waiting" after Update

[admin]

Some users report that a Meteohub update results in destroying the actual crontab that schedules all the needed jobs for recomputation etc. Unfortunately, I couldn't find a reason so far. The udpates do some modification with the CRON tab, but that should be ok.

However, if Meteohub stays in mode "waiting" for recomputation (displayed on "system information" page), you can apply the following update to install a fresh crontab.

Remark: By installing this, you will loose the time schedules of your graph uploads, as these are also part of the crontab.

I just found another root cause on a user's system. This time a bad symbolic link blocks logging and that prevents recomputation to start as expected.

Next update (3.1a) will have code in the installer that deletes the bad link, if there.
