And it is a cronjob. However when I run this script ./backup.sh then everything works fine.. When I run it through a cronjob the "rm -Rf /home/backups/tmp" and the "cp -Rf /var/www /home/backups/tmp" commands are like "overwritten" by the next commands.. in other words: they start to early aka they wont wait for previous command to finish.
How can I get past this? I've tried sleep but I want to keep my script flexibel as the content of the backupdirs may change in size.
So what I want to do is wait for a command to finish before calling a next command!
