I have a cron job set to run thusly in my root crontab:
[root at zminder root]# crontab -l
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall.
# (/tmp/crontab.12165 installed on Mon Apr 24 22:56:36 2006)
# (Cron version -- $Id: crontab.c,v 2.13 1994/01/17 03:20:37 vixie Exp $)
0 1 * * * /var/www/html/zm/events/cleanup.sh
As you can see it's supposed to run every morning at 1 AM. This is the
script it's supposed to run:
#! /bin/sh
cd ./9
rm -Rf *
cd ../12
rm -Rf *
...etc.
As you can see, all it does is delete any and all files and
sub-directories under the various directories it's changing into. The
script works fine run from the command-line.
The cron-job never happens, though. I can't figure what's wrong.
Anybody able to clue me in as to what needs to be done? This is root's
crontab, btw...
Thanx.
