You're not reading: I wrote: " Top of script (possibly just below the she-bang): import sys print sys.path " and " 1 * * * * /usr/bin/python /path/to/script/update_feeds.py > /path/to/ script/update_feeds.log 2>&1 " Then check your update_feeds.log. That gets the output generated from update_feeds.py when run from cron.
