Hi!
I made a script that downloads an image, and added it to crontab -e -u skazhy
like this:
* /10 * * * * /home/skazhy/script
But it does not complete and I get this error ir crond.log:
Mar 1 14:38:01 myhost crond[3077]: failed parsing crontab for user skazhy: /10 * * * * /home/skazhy/script
The script has no errors. I haven't used cron before, what's wrong here?

there is a typo in the crontab entry, a space between first asterisk and "/10"
it shuld be
*/10 * * * * <script>
