change shell type in crontab

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 







The big problems is this.

i have this script:
--------------------->
#!/bin/bash
##########################################################################################
# program : _tools/sys_backup_pc08spt.bash
#
# subject : cria um arquivo de backup de todo o portal e transfere para a
maquina pc08spt#
##########################################################################################
. /home/rphp/.bash_profile
/app/portal_spt/htdocs/_tools/sys_funcs.bash
and go one...
--------------------->

the crontab line is this:
3 5 * * 1-6 `bash -login
/app/portal_spt/htdocs/_tools/sys_backup_samba.bash`

but after run the crontab i see in maillog this message:

/bin/sh: changed: command not found

the /bin/sh is a link to the /bin/bash
why the crontab is trying to run the script in sh...?

Are you sure you've posted the complete crontab?

Anyway, if all the commands are separate scripts and each script starts
with:

             #!/bin/bash

then the Right Thing should happen anyway.

I do wonder what you're doing that needs bash though...
