Shell Script has different ouput via cron vs when run Manually
Hello Lads,
I deployed a script on my mac to start and stop EC2 instances on AWS console. The script when started manually on the terminal does the expected stop and start. Problem is when i try to schedule it on a cron, it fails to recognize the AWS Keys which i set up as ENV variable by adding them to ~/ .bash_profile and throws an error of missing key.
Note that when i do printenv on terminal i can see the AWS ENV variables. I can also see them when i cat the ~/ .bash_profile file. Can any one advise on what's happening here. All other crons on my mac are working fine.

However, I wish to differentiate when it runs as a cron-job so the "echo" statements are not issued (they get mailed to me, which i don't want).
I tried checking $USER but since the cron was created in my user that does not... (5 Replies)
