Cron not working on digital ocean

Help and Support

Hi guys,

Just wondering if anyone could give me some pointers why my cron isnt working on digital ocean.

The script I am running is:

located here:

/usr/sbin/rclone.sh

it consists of:

#!/bin/bash
if pidof -o %PPID -x “rclone.sh”; then
exit 1
fi
rclone copy acd: gdrive:
exit

It has been made executeable.

I can run it by just typing rclone.sh

my cron looks like:

*/5 * * * * bash /usr/sbin/rclone.sh >/dev/null 2>&1

I have also tried:

*/5 * * * * /usr/sbin/rclone.sh >/dev/null 2>&1

But it refuses to run.

Any tips?

Try removing the </dev/hull 2>&1. If it’s actually running, you’ll get mail with any errors.
