Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Strange bug crontab command line php / bcompiler Post 302856109 by MadeInGermany on Monday 23rd of September 2013 03:28:22 AM

The crontab does not run the login files like .profile; certainly an important piece of environment is missing.
A brute force copy of your current environment:
Code:
(env; echo "
cd $PWD
umask `umask`
php -f cron/minute.php
") > wrapper.txt

and have the following command in crontab
Code:
sh /path/wrapper.sh

with the correct path of course.
