SUMMARY: Cron and forcing the use of ksh - FOLLOWUP
2007-12-25 0:29:00
Sorry for the late summary but I received so many responses that it took
awhile to filter through a lot of them. This list is great. Although I
got many responses, special thanks go to:
Darren Dunham
Tristan Ball
Brett Lymn
All of them forced me to revisit how PATH was set when running under
cron despite my insistence that it was configured correctly. Although
I still don't understand why, PATH loses a portion of its' "path" at
some point in the cron process. I created a small script that resets
PATH correctly to the same value that is normally found when executing
the command from the korn shell command line. This solves the problem.
All is well again.
Thanks again.
