Help needed on cron job
Hi Yogesh,
I have a script where i have set up a cron job. The script is running manually. The cron job is running successfully. The script is written so that whenever the database link is down, we need to get an alert mail. We are getting the mail when we run the script manually but not when executed through cronjob. Please reply me to

NAME
rt-email-dashboards - Send email dashboards
SYNOPSIS
rt-email-dashboards [options]
DESCRIPTION
This tool will send users email based on how they have subscribed to dashboards. A dashboard is a set of saved searches, the subscription
controls how often that dashboard is sent and how it's displayed.
Each subscription has an hour, and possibly day of week or day of month. These are taken to be in the user's timezone if available, UTC
otherwise.
SETUP
You'll need to have cron run this script every hour. Here's an example crontab entry to do this.
0 * * * * /usr/bin/perl /opt/rt4/local/sbin/rt-email-dashboards
This will run the script every hour on the hour. This may need some further tweaking to be run as the correct user.
OPTIONS
This tool supports a few options. Most are for debugging.
-h
--help Display this documentation
--dryrun
Figure out which dashboards would be sent, but don't actually generate or email any of them
--time SECONDS
Instead of using the current time to figure out which dashboards should be sent, use SECONDS (usually since midnight Jan 1st, 1970,
so 1192216018 would be Oct 12 19:06:58 GMT 2007).
--epoch SECONDS
Back-compat for --time SECONDS.
--all Ignore subscription frequency when considering each dashboard (should only be used with --dryrun for testing and debugging)
