[solved] Problem with cron

Hello,

I use flexget to download torrents automatically. Unfortunately flexget doesn't have a daemon mod yet so I have to use cron. I've add the following line to cron, using corntab -e:

@hourly /home/ido/flexget/flexget -q

This doesn't work, although the command does work when run directly from shell.

This is /var/log/crond output:

09-May-2009 16:29  failed user ido parsing @hourly /home/ido/flexget/flexget -q

Any help is appreciated, Ido.

Re: [solved] Problem with cron

The cron that is in Arch Linux (Dillon's Cron) don't support this sintax, So use:

0 * * * * /home/ido/flexget/flexget -q > /dev/null 2>&1

instead wink
