Hi,

maybe you can edit this plugin, because if i want to set cron per hour, then i need to change config files :)
It's not the problem for me, but i think i am not only one who want this feature.

Best regards

I have been trying to set a Cron job for a script to run every 5 minutes without success. I have entered this line in the bh.cron file but it does not execute it:

Code:
*/5 * * * * /usr/script/script.sh

It also does not respond to a Hourly cron:

Code:
15 * * * * /usr/script/script.sh

If I set a set time, then it does execute:

Code:
15 09 * * * /usr/script/script.sh

Is it possible to execute a periodic or Hourly event or is it intended to only run a set time command?

If the script is ok and the commando is placed in bh.cron and root, then it works without any problems

OK, I have it working, it seems Blackhole does not like the Gedit editor I was using in ubuntu - or any other Linux (or Windows Linux friendly) text editor I was using.

I had to use this command to write the command to the root and bh.cron files:

Code:
echo "*/5 * * * * /usr/script/script.sh" >> /etc/bhcron/root

Do you know of any regular text editor that works?

Hi,

i noticed something strange, if i use this command cron don't work

Code:
*/15 * * * * /var/script/script.sh

But when i try this, everything works very well

Code:
*/20 * * * * /var/script/script.sh

not big deal but strange.

why a cron task every 15 min doesn't work but every 20 min, no problem !

anyway not a big deal, 15 or 20 min it's the same.

thanks.
