Crontab

[kairosart]

How can I run grive in crontab? I've tried with 0 19 * * * /usr/local/bin/grive and there's not any sync, even though the program runs.

I think your current directory needs to be your grive directory for it to sync. I would try a simple bash file that sets your current directory to ~/grive (or whatever) and then runs grive. Set your cronjob to run the script and not grive directly.

#!/bin/bash
cd ~/grive
grive

A lot of us use some permutation of the following bash file and set it to run at startup using whatever method your Desktop Environment supplies to keep things sync'd.

#!/bin/bash
sleep 2m
cd ~/grive
while true
do
grive
sleep 5
done

Thanks. I'll try.
