Cron reports: cannot determine current run level

Cron reports:
/etc/cron.hourly/inn-cron-nntpsend:

cannot determine current run level
/etc/cron.hourly/inn-cron-rnews:

cannot determine current run level

strace who -r ends with:

access("/var/run/utmpx", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/var/run/utmp", O_RDWR) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/var/run/utmp", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
access("/var/run/utmpx", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/var/run/utmp", O_RDWR) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/var/run/utmp", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
exit_group(0)                           = ?

Suggestions for solutions?
