Cronjob command without absolute path #7

Closed thonixx closed 9 years ago

thonixx commented 10 years ago

If I want to record a program and I let the script create the cronjob, then I have this as a result:

55 13 19 02 * watchteleboy --record --quiet --channel SRF1 --duration 180 --deleteme 44436002 --showname "SRF1" --path /home/user/watchteleboy

Problem: Having watchteleboy not symlinked in one of the systems standard executable paths the cronjob fails to start. I recommend to set an absolute path to the watchteleboy executable.

Yeah, putting the whole path to watchteleboy into crontab would be preferrable. I'll add that as soon as I find time.

Thanks for the suggestion

Hm.. let's close the issue when it is actually implemented....
