Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Cron Job failure - No such file or directory Post 302918504 by migurus on Tuesday 23rd of September 2014 06:43:00 PM

The job started by a cron will have user's home directory as current directory, I'd guess when you run your commands from CLI your current directory is different; Try to add cd /your/target/dir; before your command in the crontab entry, like so:

Code:
 
 1 2 * * * cd /your/target/dir; your_script_name;

Amazon::SQS::Simple::Queue(3pm) 			User Contributed Perl Documentation			   Amazon::SQS::Simple::Queue(3pm)

NAME
Amazon::SQS::Simple::Queue - OO API for representing queues from the Amazon Simple Queue Service. SYNOPSIS
use Amazon::SQS::Simple; my $access_key = 'foo'; # Your AWS Access Key ID my $secret_key = 'bar'; # Your AWS Secret Key my $sqs = new Amazon::SQS::Simple($access_key, $secret_key); my $q = $sqs->CreateQueue('queue_name'); $q->SendMessage('Hello world!'); my $msg = $q->ReceiveMessage(); print $msg->MessageBody() # Hello world! $q->DeleteMessage($msg->MessageId()); INTRODUCTION
Don't instantiate this class directly. Objects of this class are returned by various methods in "Amazon::SQS::Simple". See Amazon::SQS::Simple for more details. METHODS
Endpoint() Get the endpoint for the queue. Delete([%opts]) Deletes the queue. Any messages contained in the queue will be lost. SendMessage($message, [%opts]) Sends the message. The message can be up to 8KB in size and should be plain text. ReceiveMessage([%opts]) Get the next message from the queue. Returns an "Amazon::SQS::Simple::Message" object. See Amazon::SQS::Simple::Message for more details. If MaxNumberOfMessages is greater than 1, the method returns an array of "Amazon::SQS::Simple::Message" objects. Options for ReceiveMessage: o MaxNumberOfMessages => NUMBER Maximum number of messages to return. Value should be an integer between 1 and 10 inclusive. Default is 1. DeleteMessage($receipt_handle, [%opts]) Delete the message with the specified receipt handle from the queue ChangeMessageVisibility($receipt_handle, $timeout, [%opts]) NOT SUPPORTED IN APIs EARLIER THAN 2009-01-01 Changes the visibility of the message with the specified receipt handle to $timeout seconds. $timeout must be in the range 0..43200. AddPermission($label, $account_actions, [%opts]) NOT SUPPORTED IN APIs EARLIER THAN 2009-01-01 Sets a permissions policy with the specified label. $account_actions is a reference to a hash mapping 12-digit AWS account numbers to the action(s) you want to permit for those account IDs. The hash value for each key can be a string (e.g. "ReceiveMessage") or a reference to an array of strings (e.g. ["ReceiveMessage", "DeleteMessage"]) RemovePermission($label, [%opts]) NOT SUPPORTED IN APIs EARLIER THAN 2009-01-01 Removes the permissions policy with the specified label. GetAttributes([%opts]) Get the attributes for the queue. Returns a reference to a hash mapping attribute names to their values. Currently the following attribute names are returned: o VisibilityTimeout o ApproximateNumberOfMessages SetAttribute($attribute_name, $attribute_value, [%opts]) Sets the value for a queue attribute. Currently the only valid attribute name is "VisibilityTimeout". AUTHOR
