[hadi motamedi <motamedi24@gmail.com>]

Thank you very much for your reply . Can you please do me favor and let me know what is the equivalent of Linux "/etc/rc.local" bootup script in Debian ? In Linux , I put the "crontab crontab.txt" in /etc/rc.local bootup script but where I am expected to put it under my Debian server ?

Thank you in advance

Then you should explain better your problem, your solution in August
(that which put crontab in local.rc) was not fine.

Use /etc/cron.d/ directory to schedule this task.
