Fedora unable to schedule scrip
 

I am trying to schedule a script to run once a week via cron the command i'm using is. 59 5 * * 5 /backups/scripts/backup.sh but after i run the command i get the following error:-

-bash: 59: command not found

I have checked and cron is installed, i have tried to search the internet for a solution but couldn't find one


I'm a newbie when it comes to Linux so i would really appreciate any help.

The above means it can't find the program "59", not the cron program. You have the format of the command incorrect.
