Hi,
I seem to have a problem with crontab. I am running CentOS 5.5. If I add my bakup scripts into crontab they take very long to run. If I run my scripts manually they run 100%. I have also tried vixiecron, same issue. Any ideas?
Thanks
Jenny
Hi,
Did you use full paths to your executables in your script?
If you run an script from crontab, you could have other/missing enviroment variables.
Best regards,
Joost

Did you check if they both have the same nice level when they run? is anything else running at the time of the cron?
