cronjob not working
I am trying to schedule a job via cronjob. Not sure what the problem is. below is my script and the error.

45 10 * * * /u01/app/oracle/jpark/sched_exp_mis.sh


Error received.

Your "cron" job on tama
/u01/app/oracle/jpark/sched_exp_mis.sh

produced the following output:

/u01/app/oracle/jpark/sched_exp_mis.sh[10]: exp: not found

Can you check if the schedule script is doing the required activity or not ? ? if its delivering the result then you can redirect the error to /dev/null

Hi!

Have you checked your logs?

# tail -f /var/cron/log

I can't view the log.

tama: /var/cron >cat log
cat: cannot open log

its not executing the script at all. I have read, write, and execute permission on the script. Any other ideas?

Where are you seeing the error?

Make sure you can run the script via command line on the box running the cron. Maybe something isn't mounted?

What happens when you run the above command from the command line?
