Title: Test Cron Job Post by: gtjr92 on Saturday 12 September 2009, 05:09:45 am How Can I test a cronjob? I created one copied to the cron.weekly folder etc.
I just want to test it to make sure it will work. I tried crontab myfilename (my actual filename) and I just get command not found. I tried it from the root directory and the etc directory to no avail. Thanks Title: Re: Test Cron Job Post by: StephanSch on Saturday 12 September 2009, 07:43:01 pm try fcrontab instead of crontab.

I also tried test crontab but the script never run, and I'm not see a file "fcrontab" in /etc as you refer. Could you please recommend me and others about how to configure script to run in crontab. Thank you very much. Title: Re: Test Cron Job Post by: StephanSch on Monday 21 September 2009, 03:12:10 am how often do you wan't to start the cronjob?
Title: Re: Test Cron Job Post by: NinNin on Monday 21 September 2009, 09:27:09 pm how often do you wan't to start the cronjob? I'd like to setup efw to restart every day around 05.00 am. The line as below I did configure for test to see the result but the efw never restart. I added the line as below in the 'crontab'. # Test Restart every 15 min. 15 * * * * /sbin/shutdown -r now |
