Re: [GRASS-user] Run grass console from a cronjob
I found the solution with the printenv. My script was for bash-shell, but the crontab instead start a sh-shell. Thx for help you and other grass guys.

Re: [GRASS-user] Run grass console from a cronjob
Hi, thx for help Vaclav I was trying to run a shell script with a start of a grass and many grass command inside it. Not only a grass call. As reported few minutes ago, I resolve my issue . Printing the environment variables (using the printenv utility) I see that the crontab start a sh-shell, but my script was for a bash.shell. So the solution was simply to add the usually. #!/bin/bash in the head of script. Regards and thx to all for your help.

Re: [GRASS-user] Run grass console from a cronjob
Hi, Did you provide full paths? E.g. ~/my.tif would not work for cronjobs, you would have to use /home/user/my.tif instead. Not sure if also the path to the command to execute has to be complete (e.g. /bin/grass70 ...)...

Hi, thx for reply. I guess yes. I have some relative path, but my first line in bash is a cd /home/--path-to-grass-position to set the script in the right position in filesystem. Also in the script I set these env vars. export HOME=/home/path-to-home export USER=the_user export GROUP=the_group to the right user and group for grass A. 2015-08-26 16:38 GMT+02:00 Blumentrath, Stefan stefan.blumentr...@nina.no: Hi, Did you provide full paths?
