Hello, Both of the suggestions listed below worked. Thanks Manoj and Brandon.
I changed my EDITOR setting to xedit and that worked. I normally use elvis as my editor of choice, and this is the first time I believe that I have had a problem with it exiting with an error code. Should I consider this a fault with crontab or elvis? Whats the best way to track this down? I'll be happy to do some debugging if I can get a pointer. Thanks. --ken On Oct 10, 11:22am, Manoj Srivastava wrote: > Subject: Re: How to create a crontab per user? > Hi, > > Try creating a personal crontab file, and then uploading it. > % vi ~/etc/crontab > % crontab ~/etc/crontab > % crontab -l > > manoj On Oct 10, 12:27pm, Brandon Mitchell wrote: > Subject: Re: How to create a crontab per user? > Try a different editor: > export VISUAL="/usr/bin/editor_of_choice" > to see if the problem is with vi. > > Brandon -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
