Hello people, i have some problems with executing scripts with cron. I’ve enabled the service and it’s running, but it’s not executing my scripts correctly.
[mainstream@oxytocine-pc ~]$ ps -ef | grep crond
root 438 1 0 09:56 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/crond -n
mainstr+ 2540 1948 0 10:13 pts/0 00:00:00 grep --colour=auto crond
crontab -e
@reboot /usr/local/bin/rsyncdrive > /dev/null 2>&1
@hourly /usr/local/bin/rsyncdrive > /dev/null 2>&1
@reboot bash -l /usr/local/bin/m3u 2> /tmp/crontab_script_log.txt 2>&1
The log file is created but empty
m3u file:
#!/bin/sh
#Download playlist
wget [randomurl] -O /home/mainstream/Downloads/playlist.m3u
(the url is obfuscated)
The m3u file is created but also empty
I have the same problem with the rcsyncdrive, am i doing something wrong? Everything works when i manually execute the commands? Missing path variables or something?
