View 1 RepliesIf I make a cronjob to reboot a server every 3 days at like 2am? This way it will free up ram, etc and cause less problems right? I know a guy that is doing this, and I'm trying to convince him otherwise.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI know crontab -e sets a cronjob in /var/spool/cron but how do I set a cronjob to run from /etc/crontab? Is there a command used for this or would I have to manually edit a certain file?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to run the files everyday at 11.00 pm (Monday to Friday).
How would I put on cronjob? I have files ready.
I'm working on a bash script that will be run regularly via a cronjob. As there is no easy way for the user to see if it's running in the background, I'd like a have some kind of pop up window what say's something like "Process started" and "Process finished" when it's complete. Ive read though some similar threads and came across xmessage. It kind of does what I want, with the exception of:-Id like the message Process started to stay up for the whole process, but it looks like the script wont continue until the xmessage window is closed. I cant get any xmessages to appear when the script is run from a cronjob. It only appears if I run the script manually from a terminal window. Which is no good for me. If anyone has any suggestions that would be great and just to add, it's doesn't have to be xmessage, any text box would do. I'm working with Redhat 4 and 5, if that makes a difference. Chuck Norris destroyed the periodic table, because he only recognises the element of surprise.

Currently we have to comment out an rsync task every now and then. Is there a way to have a PHP script on the server so we can simply browse to it to uncomment the rsync task and another one to comment it out again ?
The rsync job is the only job in crontab so even if it means deleting / re-creating the job wouldn't be a problem. I just want to avoid connecting via SSH and VPN every time I am asked to disable it
Cron setup for execute at 4:30 pm on 2nd monday of each month.
50 16 8-14 * mon /home/user/script.sh
It seems to be ignoring the date range 8-14?
how I can receive emails about a cronjob execution or where to go to read about that? I am using CentOS 5.4.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI wrote this little script and it runs very well, however when I setup a cronjob it only runs if I am logged in. I would like to have this script running even when I am not logged in. At the moment it runs but only when I am logged in. I logged as denis and in terminal (su root) and edited crontab as shown below, what do I need to change or setup to have this script run when no-one is logged in the computer. I run Fedora 12 (64 bit)
backup script:
cd /home/denis/Documents
tar -czvPf /home/denis/Backups/docsbackups_$(date +%Y%b%d_%HH%MM).tar.gz /home/denis/Documents
# above line will produce file with name in this format "docsbackups_date&time.tar.gz" in the /home/denis/Backups folder

I am a PHP developer.I have always used XAAMP(in Windows7) for development purpose. I am driven to turn to Linux now . I have installed Ubuntu10.04-rev189(Wubi) in Windows7 recently. I have a PHP script which require the following tasks to be performed.
1. Give permissions "777" to the following files and folders:_cache media images /configs.php mages/config_photo_preview.jpg
2. Set up cron jobs on your site like this: /usr/local/bin/php -q /your-site-root-dir/cron/index.php I need to get an environment like XAAMP and perform the above mentioned tasks.
i wanted to ask you for help in setting up a cronjob, that restarts a game server.By now I made a script that kills the screen of the server and then restarts it.
View 2 Replies View Relatedi have a site where I need to run a couple of php scripts every day..therefore I was thinking to setup a cronjob to do this. Unfortunately I get a whole bunch of errors trying to do so.
I can execute the php scripts via a command line without problem, one example would be
php /home/site/domains/stie.be/public_html/admin/cronjobs/cronjob_daily_ssh.php
however when i enter this command as such in a cronjob I get an error saying php command not found ( or something similar , doing this out of memory)
I tried to add the full path to the php command, but also this doenst work
the best workaround I found was to execute the php scripts with a lynx - dump command, but obviously this is not the right way.
I am new to bash scripting (not programming in general).
I am writing a bash script that will run a Python script I have written.
I want to be able to do the following:
Pass parameters to the bash script via the cronjob (so I can have two cron jobs) one to be run with parameter 'foobar', and the other 'foo'
switch based on the parameter passed to the bash script (by switching, I mean an if/else based on the paramter passed to the bash script).
I would like to make a cronjob who makes a tag.gz of everything inside a directory in a recursive way. BUT there is a HUGE directory full of jpg's. I don't want this one in the backup.Additional points if it can backup symbolic links.
