Subject: Executing a shell script from crontab
To: Free Software Users Group,  Thiruvananthapuram


Hi all,

   I wrote a script to change my wallpaper. Now i want to execute this
automatically after a short duration. So i tried using crontab . But
it doesnt works for me .

 I manually executed the script and it is working well . "crontab -l "
gives
# m h  dom mon dow   command
* * * * * /bin/bash  /usr/local/bin/wallChanger

And from the log viewer , i can see entries saying crontab is
executing the command .
Jun  1 14:59:01 abc-laptop CRON[2964]: (abc) CMD (/bin/bash /usr/
local/
bin/wallChanger)

pls help me to run the script from crontab.
