hi, you're mix/matching the available options.
First of all, if your system has an available cron, use that. web2py's cron
is not as accurate as unix one.
If you want to leverage cron, at least read the section in the book that
speaks of it
http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/04#Cron
If
Thanks for your help Def read the book but struggled a bit.
I ended up using the unix cron tab and got it working.
Thanks again for taking the time to respond.

I say the book works just fine:
http://web2py.com/book/default/chapter/04#Cron
The syntax you want to use is: @reboot * * * * root
*applications/test/controllers/private.py
Set that in your app/cron/crontab and make sure your controller does
db.commit() at the end.
Also you need SOFTCRON =
The chapter works, the link to the syntax does not.

I apologize, this should have been in my original post.
For more specifics, my crontab file has only one line in it:
@reboot root python web2py.py -S test -M -N -R applications/test/
controllers/private.py
I have tried to restart the server multiple times, to no avail with
getting this process
Do you have those spaces in there? The cron line should be:
55 07 * * * root *default/limpiar_eventos
Are you able to run the function in your browser?
http://127.0.0.1:8000/myapp/default/limpiar_eventos
http://127.0.0.1:8000/myapp/default/limpiar_eventos work fine in
cherokee web server,
and crontab work fine in web2py´s server but not in cherokee web
server.

I doubt it's a Cherokee problem. Do you have a crontab set up on your
server?
For example, this is what I have in my unix crontab (not web2py crontab).
Cron is still a little confusing to me.
MAILTO=c...@myserver.com
0-59/1 * * * * cd /var/web2py python web2py.py -C -D 1 /dev/null 21
No , only in web2py, not in cherokee.
Where I write this code?
0-59/1 * * * * cd /var/web2py python web2py.py -C -D 1 /dev/null

I don't really understand how the web2py cron an external cron work
together. I have a crontab in my application cron folder that appears to run
when I'm running web2py on my Mac.
But on my server, I have a regular crontab file (set up with sudo -u
www-data crontab -e) that executes web2py to
Actually I'm looking at my cron right now and am pretty confused. Does
anyone know how external cron works exactly?
In my /etc/crontab, I have:
0-59/1 * * * * cd /var/web2py python web2py.py -C -D 1 /dev/null 21
In /var/web2py/applications/init/cron/crontab, I have:
*/6 * * * * root
Now I am wondering if I should just have crontab wget my cron functions into
dev/null?
0-59/1 * * * * wget http://localhost/myapp/cron/cronjob /dev/null 21
Seems kinda lo-tech. Will this cause any problems?
Yes they can. They should all run from the main web2py folder (do not
use os.chdir(...)!)
Digression: I'd like to fix that eventually. It's not so bad to require the
cwd to be web2py for startup, but it shouldn't matter after that.
I think it's a bad idea to use os.chdir because AFAIK
What you say is true but Jonathan is talking at startup, before the
web server starts and before any thread is created.

the only issue is that cron jobs do not have access to stdout so they
cannot print.
You can use the logging module or print to a file.

Thanks very much for the help Massimo and Jonathan.
I found the script was working but it was creating the log in the main
web2py folder rather than applications/app_name/cron etc.
BRGDS,

p.s. web2py rocks!! It really takes the pain out of web
development :-)
