Here is my crontab:
# rsnapshot jobs
0 9-21 * * * /usr/bin/rsnapshot -c /home/kaiyin/.rsnapshot.conf hourly
52 22 * * * /usr/bin/rsnapshot -c /home/kaiyin/.rsnapshot.conf daily
42 22 * * 6 /usr/bin/rsnapshot -c /home/kaiyin/.rsnapshot.conf weekly
32 22 1 * * /usr/bin/rsnapshot -c /home/kaiyin/.rsnapshot.conf monthly
* * * * * /bin/echo hi >> /tmp/testlog
The last one runs ok, but the rsnapshot ones will not run, why?
/etc/crontab
or in a user crontab? Does thersnapshot
command work if you copy-paste it into a shell? Have you checked the syslog for cron errors?
