I am trying to get the basic cron job to run on a new web2py application but amnot having any success. I read about starting web2py with the -Y option I am running on ubuntu and using the native web2py server I have a db.commit() in the controller function the function runs perfectly when i run thru the browser. I have modified the application crontab file (see below)
#crontab */10 * * * * root *tagme/tagme.py I think this should cause the controller function to run every 10 minutes. I also am not 100% familiar with cron and am unsure how and where i can see if it is throwing any errors. any advice would be appreciated. --
