Hello, If I do this in a shell script:
#!/bin/bash echo `date +%X` > /var/www/loger save it as /var/www/test.sh make it executable (chmod +x test.sh) if I run it from bash and cat /var/www/loger I get 12:29:09 AM if I run it from sh I get the same. If I stick that into crontab using crontab -e (*/1 * * * * /var/www/test.sh > /dev/null 2>&1) and cat /var/www/loger after crontab has run I get 00:29:09 This also happens with echo `date +%x` > /var/www/loger executed from bash I get 10-03-20, but if executed via crontab I get 03/20/10 when I cat /var/www/loger Why is this?
