CRON Not Execuding Scripts

Hi. I have several scripts in /etc/cron.hourly/ For example my update_website.sh
#!/bin/bash
rsync -e ssh -avz /home/http/content --exclude "*bak" --exclude "*~" [email protected]:/usr/users/myuser/WWW
The script executes nicely on its own, but never gets executed via cron, as inteded. I have
$ ls -l
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 590 2009-03-21 14:57 /etc/cron.hourly/upload_website.sh
and
$ sudo crontab -l
Password:
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE MANUALLY!! USE crontab -e INSTEAD.
# <minute> <hour> <day> <month> <dow> <command>
01 * * * * /usr/sbin/run-cron /etc/cron.hourly

22 00 * * 0 /usr/sbin/run-cron /etc/cron.weekly
42 00 1 * * /usr/sbin/run-cron /etc/cron.monthly
Any ideas?

  • How to check if date field is initial or not in script layout?

    hi all,
    i have a requirement, i need to check if a particular field is initial or not in script.
    i am checking like this
    /: if &VTTK-DALEN& is initial.
    its not working
    even if not .... is initial is also not working.
    i have used all capital letters only....
    thanks in advance.

    You can not use that syntax in sapscript.  You might try this.

    I just installed The latest MySQL, and PHP... for my server, and the message above is what I get now when I attempt to log into my own server, though localhost, or even 127.0.0.1... Are you telling me that because of this configuration that Safari can't handle the latest of either or both?
    Or is there anything else that may be causing the problems? I have it so it accepts cookies from the site only... so there is no excuse as far as I can tell for this bugaboo...
    Anyone got a clue, and a sollution in why this is happening at all?

  • Error on boot: "Can not find script file "C:\Progra​mData\Leno​vo-20841.v​bs".

    Recently I'm getting an error dialog box on my T530 when I boot it into my OEM installation of Windows 8.  The window title bar is "Windows Script Host", and the error message is:
    Error on boot: "Can not find script file "C:\ProgramData\Lenovo-20841.vbs".
    I pulled up an old backup, and I do have that file, along with a number of other ones that are missing from that directory.  I'm attaching a screenshot of the files that are missing.  Not sure why they would have been deleted (I know I didn't do it manually).  Should I just restore the file?  What about the other ones?
    Thanks very much.

    I am getting a different VBS script error than the one listed above.
    Does anyone know how I can get this file?  or recreate it?
    I get a similar message saying that it can't find the file c:\programdata\Lenovo-11472.vbs
    Also, my wireless just randomly resets - sometimes very few minutes - after I've been using the system for a while.  It's brand new and I can't figure out what's going on.  Could this be the issue?
    When I restart, it stays stable for a while and then starts acting up again.
    Thanks for your help!

    Hi Vishnu,
    1)Go to RZ11.
       Enter Profile name aas SAPGUI/USER_SCRIPTING and the default value should be true.
    Current Value should be set to true. -
    This needs to be done by BASIS admin team.
    2)Request System Admin team to allow eCATT and CATT allowed in this system.
    3)In the SAPGUI front end at the menu,you have options to enable scripting.
    The first two steps will be done by Basis team and the step(3) can be set by you.

  • Sysprep and Capture Task Sequence Fails "Can not find script file C:\LTIBootstrap.vbs"

    I've just installed Windows 8 on a Lenovo ThinkPad T440s using Lenovo's recovery discs. I did not join it to a domain. I logged in as Administrator, navigated to our deployment share, and ran Scripts\LiteTouch.wsf. I selected the new Sysprep and Capture
    Task Sequence that I just made, told it to upload to DeploymentShare$\Captures, then started the Task Sequence.
    It seemed to run fine until after the first reboot. Windows 8 configured the PC for a while, then displayed an error that it had been shut down unexpectedly. I wasn't sure if this was normal, so I just clicked OK. Then I got an error that said "Can
    not find script file C:\LTIBootstrap.vbs". After clicking OK on that, I am brought to the desktop.
    The image cannot be found in DeploymentShare$\Captures. Under the Monitoring section of the DeploymentWorkbench, I can see that MDT thinks the Task Sequence is still running on the machine (though it is not), with progress stuck on step 16 of 23: Execute
    Sysprep. There are 0 errors and 0 warnings listed.

    You might get teh c:\LTIBootStrap.vbs error if you are running SysPrep with a unattend.xml template that contains the c:\bootstrap.vbs template, yet you are *NOT* deploying the image with MDT Litetouch, instead just applying the image to the final machine.
    Crack open your install.wim file and search for the unattend.xml file in the normal places to see what it is.
    I am concerned about the "shut down unexpectedly" error. There should be no shutdown state information left  from a captured *.wim file.

    Thanks guys

    Hey there,
    Few things..
    You got a script error -
    Timestamp: 31/05/13 9:25:35 PM
    Error: TypeError: $(...).swipe is not a function
    Source File: http://www.simplyscotlandshop.com/js/MASTER.js
    Line: 100
    Your calling for an alement that does not exist here thus you have a script error. Wrap that call in a condition where it checks if the element exists first before it runs.
    Secondly your calling scripts incorectly.
    All you need to do is set the source as ..
    src="/yourfolder/youfile.file"
    So everything starts with just a slash, no absolute url or ../
    This will address other issues.
    Do these and see how you are and then post if there are other issues

  • Why is the Executable class only available in Script Task and not in Script Component.

    Why is the Executable class only available in Script Task and not in Script Component.
    Here is a link to the Executable class documentation.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sqlserver.dts.runtime.executable.aspx

    Because Executables are available only in Control Flow. Script Task is a control flow component whreas Script Component is a data flow component. It works on data buffer and rows and not on executables.

  • Cron job not running - script uses rsync, ssh (with id_rsa)

    Does anyone know how to get cron to run a rsync/ssh script which uses id_rsa for passwordless logins?
    I have a backup script I have slaved for months over that works wonderfully when running it from the command line.
    It uses rsync and connects with SSH (passwordless using ssh keys). I have setup id_rsa and id_rsa.pub for passwordless logins (this is my user account, and connects using root@ to the server)
    As stated all works find when run from the command line. But when I setup a cron job to run this file (exact same line I run from the command line) it does not execute. Actually, it does run, as I have an email notifiction which sends to me. It is just the rsync/ssh part that does not run.
    I have spent days and days trying to figure it out. No error messages occur, nothing.  Took me a while to find out cron is emailing the user account on Lion the messages (not to a proper email address).
    The error shows a permission denied, which I believe to be the cron user cannot use the id_rsa/ssh connection.
    Cron is running the script as my user, the same I use on the command line. I even tried copying the id_rsa to the root user .ssh folder in case cron is running as root but that does not work either.
    So does anyone know how to get cron to run this rsync/ssh script which used id_rsa for passwordless logins?
    Thanks a lot

    YES! Got it working, finally!
    So the issue is indeed cron/launchd not being able to access the ssh-agent which holds the key.
    So this is the solution...
    Download keychain for Mac:
    http://www.funtoo.org/wiki/Keychain
    Then once its installed and configured, the script to run needs this added to the top:
    eval `keychain --noask --eval id_rsa` || exit 1
    Note I am using id_rsa whereas keychains instructions refer to id_dsa so I just changed it and it works OK.
    When the script runs the first time it asks for the key password. Then it works from then on.
    What I do not know yet is will I need to re-enter the password when I logoff/logon again. That will cause an issue as I auto restart the Mac every day which means if I am off for a few days backup will stop (can you see the madness in this issue!).

  • Bash script run via cron not executing MYSQL command

    I have a bash script which is run from a cron,
    It is executing as I have it write to a log file which it does correctly.
    I am wanting the bash script to restore a mysqldump file.
    When I run the bash script manually the dump file gets loaded fine. But when I run it through the cron the mysql command appears to be ignored.
    The mysqldump file is 54MB and I have checked to make sure that MYSQL is included in the global users path in /etc/profile
    Does anyone know why this maybe??
    Here is the bash file
    #!/bin/bash
    date >> /home/user/crons/crons.log
    echo "Started loadbackup" >> /home/user/crons/crons.log
    cd /home/user
    dbuser=root
    dbpass=password
    dbname=databasename
    filename=backup
    mysql -hlocalhost -u"$dbuser" -p"$dbpass" "$dbname" < " >> /home/user/crons/crons.log
    My crontab looks like
    02 17 * * * /home/user/crons/loadbackup.sh
    Many thanks
    Richard

    Hi Richard,
    Have you tried redirecting the script output in the cron to see if an error is being reported?
    I.e.
    02 17 * * * /home/user/crons/loadbackup.sh > /tmp/loadbackup.log 2>&1

  • Cron & missed maintenance scripts

    Hiya.
    I'm assuming the cron-driven daily/weekly/monthly maintenance scripts are not run if the computer is sleeping.
    What (if any) is the easiest way to get caught up on those if missed for a while?
    Thanks in advance...

    Hi--
    They're actually not run by cron any more, but by launchd. So, if the computer is sleeping, but not actually off, they will eventually run. On my PowerBoook, the daily runs about once a week, the weekly every couple of months, and the monthly not often at all.
    If you want to run them by hand, you can easily run them in the Terminal (press the "enter" key after each line):
    <pre class="command">sudo periodic daily
    sudo periodic weekly
    sudo periodic monthly</pre>
    I think you can run them all like this, too:
    <pre class="command">sudo periodic daily weekly monthly</pre>
    but I've never run them that way. I either let them run on their own, or run them one at a time.

  • Can a Stored Procedure be called from a Rule (not using Scripted JDBC Adap)

    Hello smart people,
    Question: Can a stored procedure be called from a Rule without using the Scripted JDBC Resource Adapter?
    What's Desired: The project has very strong sql developers and average at best Java developers. We have been successful at implementing the scripted JDBC Resource Adapter which makes use of Java Bean shells. The custom Java Bean shell contains code that calls a stored procedure. We are cool with that process.
    However we would like to be able to set up a Rule that calls a Stored Procedure without jumping thru the Java Bean Shell layer. The Stored Procedures we will be developing will not access the tables in the Waveset database. Instead the Stored Procedures will be accessing custom tables in a custom database. The custom DBase will be housed on the same dBase server as the Waveset database.
    Environment: Identity Manager 7.1. Oracle 10i, and Unix OS.
    It seems to me that this task is possible, but the posts in this forum make it sound like perhaps it is not.
    Do any of you smart people agree that it should be possible or better yet has anyone implemented such an approach?
    Thanks.

    We did this by putting all of the JDBC calls into a Java class, then instantiated that class and called the methods from within a rule. An example of a rule we used is this:
    <Rule authType='UserMembersRule' name='List UserType'>
      <block>
        <defvar name='adapter'>
          <new class='com.waveset.adapter.ScriptedJdbcResourceAdapter'/>
        </defvar>
        <invoke name='setResource'>
          <ref>adapter</ref>
          <invoke name='getObject' class='com.waveset.ui.FormUtil'>
            <ref>context</ref>
