hi,
I want to the AIX to check if file exist everyday and send me notification email.
I added this to the root file in /var/spool/cron/crontabs
I tried also
and in the sendS40No.sh i wrote this
if i will run the file using the sh command im getting the result, but its not running using the cron i dont know why,
have in mind that we are running daily backup using cron and its working fine. but my job is not running..
any advice?
mydir mean the user directory right?
I'm using the root user, but i cant find /home/root/
i have /home/common
/home/anonymou
and other directories
but there is no /home/root/
i think there is something wrong, right?
No, there is nothing wrong, if you can you should run this as an other user. But if you have to run this as root the files you will be looking for are in the "root" directory - this is also abreviated to "/".
For all the "normal" users the homedirectory is named /home/username, but for the root user it is /. You can change this (and some - including the Linux makers - think this is a good idea) by using the chuser command or by changing the entry in the file /etc/passwd.
Apart from this i suggest you add a "shebang" line to your script to make sure that the same interpreter is loaded consistently to run it:
This will change nothing for your script but will make sure the executable /bin/ksh is loaded first and then fed your script as code.
From your two possibilities mentioned in post #1 the first was correct:
is how a cron entry should look like. The second one would send any output to <stdout> or <stderr> as a mail to root, which is most probably not what you want.
