OK, so I want put the new mythconverg_backup.pl into a cron job, but I'm
not having much success. I can run it from the command line and it runs
fine, however, when I put it into a cron job, it never runs. I created
a script called mythdb_backup under /cron/cron.daily as follows:
#!/bin/sh
mythconverg_backup.pl --rotate 7
Pretty basic, but it never runs. How can I debug why its not running?
I didn't see anything in /var/log/messages, but I may be looking in the
wrong area.
Thanks,
Harry
