Re: [Toolserver-l] cronsub
Hello all Hello River 1st Thanks for the fast reply. After reading it and also some older posts I was able to figure out a 'chmod 744' is needed on my python script BUT ALSO THE ADDITION OF '#!/usr/bin/env python' AS FIRST LINE in the script IS NEEDED. 2nd I switched to 'cronie' (thanks for the installation ;) 3rd My next problem is: = Traceback (most recent call last): File "/sge62/default/spool/wolfsbane/job_scripts/118077", line 43, in import wikipedia, config, query, pagegenerators ImportError: No module named wikipedia = when running: 'qsub $HOME/pywikipedia/runbotrun.py -cron' which is the equivalent to: '0 2 * * * cronsub -s mainbot $HOME/pywikipedia/runbotrun.py -cron' in my cron(ie)tab file. But it seams that the change you mentioned "Previously, SGE would copy the job script to a shared directory" does not trigger for 'qsub'... I assume the both tools to have the same behaviour, since I thought I can use 'qsub' to test my crontab entries... But may be I'm wrong here. Greetings! And thanks for your help!

Re: [Toolserver-l] cronsub
Hi, since we changed to Solaris I'm not able to start my perl-script via cron. 1. I'm using the example given at https://wiki.toolserver.org/view/Cronsub#cronsub for my cronjob: 0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * /opt/local/bin/cronsub -s seth-vdetector % /usr/bin/perl $HOME/bots/vdetector.pl >/dev/null the old (working) code was: */5 * * * * nice -n 10 /usr/local/bin/phoenix /home/seth/phoenix-seth-vdetector /usr/bin/perl $HOME/bots/vdetector.pl >/dev/null Now the file seth-vdetector.out contains error messages Base class package "Bot::BasicBot" is empty. (Perhaps you need to 'use' the module which defines that package first, or make that module available in @INC (@INC contains: /opt/ts/perl/5/share/vendor_perl /opt/ts/perl/5.12/lib/site_perl/5.12 /opt/ts/perl/5.12/lib/vendor_perl/5.12 /opt/ts/perl/5.12/lib/5.12 .). at /home/seth/bots/vdetector.pl line 9 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /home/seth/bots/vdetector.pl line 9. What does that mean? At Linux there hasn't been such an error. The perl line which seems to generate the error is use base qw( Bot::BasicBot ); I asked about Basic::Bot more than 9 months ago, but did not get any answer. :-( https://wiki.toolserver.org/w/index.php?title=Conversion_of_nightshade_to_Solaris&action=historysubmit&diff=3685&oldid=3680 2. Since 2010-01-08 02:25 (UTC) I'm getting additional cron error messages by e-mail: /opt/local/bin/cronsub[38]: shift: bad number I guess, this has to do with river's change. But I don't know what to to, since $HOME/bots/vdetector.pl is already at -rwxr-xr-x. Can anybody help? thx and bye seth ___ Toolserver-l mailing list (Toolserver-l@lists.wikimedia.org) https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/toolserver-l Posting guidelines for this list: https://wiki.toolserver.org/view/Mailing_list_etiquette
