Hi, I have the following crontab entry.
~$ sudo crontab -l Password: * 1 * * * bash -c "/opt/local/bin/port selfupdate; /opt/local/bin/port upgrade outdated" 1>/tmp/portupdate_out.log 2>/tmp/portupdate_err.log But it seems not working properly, as I always get an error like the following after the scheduled time of the crontab entry. ~$ sudo port upgrade tk Waiting for lock on /opt/local/var/macports/registry/.registry.lock I also notice that launchd succeed crontab on mac OS X. So it might be better to avoid launchd. Does anybody have some example on how to setup up "port selfupdate" and "port upgrade outdated" run periodically (say once a day)? Thanks! -- Regards, Peng _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
