Re: cron problem

Hmm, this is a bit off topic, but... Mario wrote:

[snip...] The story: I have created a script in the cron dir that runs a php file that sends auto emails. (The script is working fine when we run it through the command line, so it's working fine). The problem is that when the time comes and the cron should do its thing and run the script automatically, it doesn't. We have tried the cron.d dir and the cron.daily and nothing. The funny thing is that there are couple of scripts in there that run properly (I've been told anyways). So the question is: Is there some file somewhere that lists the names of the files that should run in the cron directory? If not, can someone tell me what the h*ll is going on? You can use the command 'crontab -l' to what tasks are listed there and the command 'crontab -e' to insert/delete the entries.
