Hi VP! How did you use the system cron? I'm wondering how can I specify the function that I want to execute...

I answered your email. Briefly (on Linux/Unix): + Use crontab -l to see your cron entries. + Use crontab -e to create/edit cron entries. + Google / wikipedia for cron syntax. To execute a URL (e.g. web2py controller, you can either use wget or curl). On Mar 15, 8:05 am, Tito Garrido titogarr...@gmail.com wrote: Hi VP! How did you use the system cron?

In fact, seems that it doesn't work on webfaction...

I think 0-59/1 * * * * root *admin/test should be 0-59/1 * * * * root *admin/default/test there may be other problems.

Cron didn't work for me either, so I used the system cron. One question I have though is why root when web2py is run as www- data?
