Newbie: cron.hourly problem
Dear Group,
I cannot get the cron to work the way I expect it to. (on a Sarge machine)
(after having read the man pages, searched this list and googled)
Maybe I misunderstood something...
I put a shell script file in /etc/cron.hourly and I expected it to run once
an hour.
the syslog tells me that cron does something:
Mar 11 15:17:01 sigurd /USR/SBIN/CRON[23344]: (root) CMD (
run-parts --report
/etc/cron.hourly)
However, the shellscript is not run.
The shellscript works fine when I type the name on the prompt.
See below, the shellscript text.
Any hints would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Goran
----shellscript in /etc/conf.hourly-------------------
#!/bin/bash

# Move Photos
cd ~goran
bash movephotos.sh
