[davidpepe]

Hello Administrators!!
My name is David from Argentina, I have a problem witch cron on zimbra user...
My script only execute the following command:

!#/bin/bash
FECHA=`date -d "a day ago" +%Y-%m-%d`
mkdir -p /opt/zimbra/zmstat/$FECHA/chart
cd /opt/zimbra/bin
./zmstat-chart -s /opt/zimbra/zmstat/$FECHA/ -d /opt/zimbra/zmstat/$FECHA/chart/

In manual mode, the execution is successful, but the execution in cron not run correctly... He only create the directory "chart" but not execute the command "zmchart..."
Why?? any ideas??
Thank you very much, and I'm sorry, my english isn't very good..jeje. David.

Hello, and welcome to the Zimbra Forums!

Are you executing the cron job as the Zimbra user?

Can we see

crontab -u zimbra -l

?

What are the permissions on zmstat-chart

ls -l zmstat-chart

[davidpepe]

the permissions on zimbra-chart are
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1613 Nov 17 08:10 zmstat-chart

[bdial]

why not instead of

cd /opt/zimbra/bin
./zmstat-chart -s /opt/zimbra/zmstat/$FECHA/ -d /opt/zimbra/zmstat/$FECHA/chart/

you just do

/opt/zimbra/bin/zmstat-chart -s /opt/zimbra/zmstat/$FECHA/ -d /opt/zimbra/zmstat/$FECHA/chart/

[uxbod]

Should it not be #! for the shell directive ?

[davidpepe]

hi!! In the first instance of script, the command be:
/opt/zimbra/bin/zmstat-chart... -d /... but he doesn't nothing...
I don't understend, why?? I'm execute the script and run correctly, but in the cron no...

[bdial]

did you see what uxbod said?

when you're logged in, all scripts run in the shell you're currently in, most likely bash by default.

when scripts are run from crontab they are not run from a shell so you must specify the shell correctly it's supposed to run in. if you really have !#/bin/bash then that would explain it.

The file is owned by root. If you're executing cron from zimbra, you need to change the perms to zimbra:zimbra
