I am having trouble with the Cron utility. I have written a fairly simple
bash script that runs successfully on its own but does not work with
crontab. I am working on a Windows 2K machine. I tried running a simlilar
crontab on a linux machine and it worked fine. Two crontabs I have tried
out:
39 10 * * * ./test.txt
39 10 * * * /usr/bin/test.txt
No error messages are generated. Nothing at all happens when the crontab run
time occurs. I've tried different crontab settings and have searched for a
similar problem on the mailing list, but have had no luck.
Your help is appreciated. Thank you.
