Sverre, I think you must use your own application crontab, located at applications/your_app/cron
I suggest you create a python script without any functions inside it, to isolate your cron job, and put it in applications/your_app/private/. I do this here and it works nice. Following my advice, your crontab would be like it: */2 * * * * root *applications/your_app/private/test_cron.py And your test_cron.py will have no def inside it. -- Vinicius Assef.
