无法在我的Linux服务器上触发Cron事件[关闭]

Question

I have a Amazon EC2 Linux micro instance server that I need to fire an hourly process on. I have chosen to use crontab and cannot get it to fire.

I placed a *.sh file in the /etc/cron.hourly

• If I run $ sh /etc/cron.hourly/notify.sh the script behaves as expected.
• I have checked to see if the cron service is running and it is.
• I have checked crontab contents are at the end

notify.php logs when it is called so I can tell that the service is never running. Any ideas?

Thanks

contents of: /etc/cron.hourly/notify.sh

curl localhost/notify.php

contents of: /etc/crontab

SHELL=/bin/bash  
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin  
MAILTO=root   HOME=/       

# run-parts  
01 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.hourly  
02 4 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily  
22 4 * * 0 root run-parts /etc/cron.weekly  
42 4 1 * * root run-parts /etc/cron.monthly 

Answer 1

I added this line to /etc/crontab

* * * * * root curl /etc/notify.sh >>/var/log/cron.log

This created output ever minute that helped me track down the issue. In the end I had a typo in the script.

Thanks for everyone's help!!
