I'm now able to run a REBOL cron job on my home machine. The trick is to use the '-w' flag. I thought I was running the latest version of Core on the machines at work but I'll have to check that tomorrow.
I guess the script is aborting early without '-w' when launched by Cron. Sometimes I recieved a few lines of the REBOL copyright message in my mail, other times I would only get the console clear characters. The script was writing to a file (write %/tmp/test "hello") but the file was never created. -Karl On Tuesday 02 December 2003 06:29 pm, Carl wrote: > Hi Karl, > > Check to be sure you are running the 2.5.6 Core (or SDK or Command built on > 2.5.6). > There was a memory bug in the exit code that once caused this to happen > from time to > time.
