I'm trying to use cron, I created a file called backup_cygwin
59 18 * * 6 /bin/backup_cygwin.sh
00 27 20 7 * /bin/prova.sh
and I put it in /var/cron/tabs/
Wrong place!
then I create prova.sh as follow
Wrong sequence... first create the script, then install it in cron.
SHELL=/bin/sh
touch /home/Proprietario/prova_cron
echo 'cron funziona' > /home/Proprietario/prova_cron
I started cron ( with "cron-config" command, ( is it possible
to configure it to start at win boot ? ))
Cron-config did that.
but at 00.27 nothing appened. Did I make something wrong ?
You didn't learn to use cron:
man crontab
less /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/cron-4.1-6.README
