A shot here. Does the file output blank if you run vnstat not from withing the same directory as the executable? meaning are you by hand cd'ing to the vnstat dir and then doing ./vnstat? If so maybe your cron script needs to cd first then run it. James > > > Does the file starts with #!/bin/sh so that it is recognized as a shell > script? > > Are you sure that the file is executable?
