I had forgotten that. Depending on your version of cron, this command should work: su -u www-data -c 'cd /var/www/data; HOME=/some/other/dir fossil open /repo/dir/repo.fossil' And yes, there is no ; before the fossil command. Prefixing a command with a variable assignment causes the command shell to export that variable for the duration of the command (unless your version of cron uses a limited version of the command shell). _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
