It's not the script, it's your crontab entry. The command it's trying to run (see the CMD in the log) is * /root/test and, indeed, where there should be 5 time specifiers in the crontab entry you have 6: 55 11 9 * * * -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
