Hourly Crontab Setup
Can someone please tell me how to properly setup a crontab to run every hour?
I have * * * * * /usr/local/bin/webalizer > /dev/null But it doesnt run... I once say webalizer <defunct> in the process list... i dunno if i did something wrong? |
#min hour date month dayofweek script
so hourly (on the hour) can be done with 0 * * * * mycommand Best to use the full path to the command! Doesn't work? an equiv would be 0 */1 * * * myprogram |
Oh yeah,
Any cron job that wopuld typically go out to standard out will be in your mail! If I run 0 * * * * ps -ef My mail would have the output of the ps -ef command. |
