I've created a cron task via my webhost's (a joyent shared accelerator) cron control panel. The control panel has a "run now" button, when I hit this button the thing works, I get my nice backup file created in /db, all fine. Thing is when I leave the job to run over night, all it creates is an empty db backup file!
Here's the the crontab line... 11 3 * * * cd /users/home/foo/domains/foo.com/web && RAILS_ENV=production /usr/local/bin/rake db:mysql:backup #foo nightly backup What gives? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
