Hi all,
Please anybody help me, I faced the problem with my "crontab".
I tried to run a shell script which will fetch webpage and save it to
a directory by using wget but after few minute I cannot see any file
in such directory
Below are content of shell script, my crontab and also
file's permission listing.
##########################
# Output of `crontab -l`
##########################
SHELL=/bin/sh
MAILTO=pjn
* * * * * . /home/pjn/parseGP/fetchPage.sh
########################
# file: fetchPage.sh
########################
#!/bin/sh
TIMESTAMP=`date "+%Y%m%d-%H%M%S"`
LOGPATH="/home/pjn/parseGP/logs"
/usr/local/bin/wget --no-cache -a ${LOGPATH}/fetch.log -O ${LOGPATH}/${TIMESTAMP}.html http://www.blahblah.com
