GUNZIP not working when scheduling

Hi,

I am facing this problem from few days.
Am using gunzip to unzip .gz file in my script.
If i am running manually its unziping the file.
But when i am scheduling the script using demon.cron file, its not unzipping.

Can anyone please tell me what could be the problem.
Its very urgent. so please reply if anyone knows.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Hima.

Hi,

Maybe try with "gzip -d" or specify full path of gunzip/gzip binary in your cron file. Smilie
