Operating Systems AIX crontab isn't excuting some commands Post 302284067 by ayman metwally on Wednesday 4th of February 2009 04:43:58 PM

Thanks a lot for replying...
It's always my habit to search before asking.. I didn't this time!

And regarding my "very common" problem, it was resolved by using the full absolute path to the commands.

Regards
