Works here.
Are you familiar with the  vi  editor? It can be quite confusing to use. Maybe that's what happened?

Boss 429:
I'm fairly familiar with vi editor. I'm just not sure if I'm saving it with the wrong extension? maybe the wrong location? I have entered the code as you have it in your previous post. I get a notification on boot that Crond is running as well.

With  crontab -e , an editor opens with a temporary file name which must not be changed nor must the location be specified; cron takes care about that.

patrikg:
In lots of Linux dists. You can set the EDITOR environment variable.
So
--- Code: (bash) ---crontab -e
--- End code ---

can use that, instead of the default vi.


--- Code: (bash) ---export EDITOR=nano
--- End code ---

Boss 429:
I'm sorry for the poor quality, my camera wouldn't focus and I'm not sure how to take screenshots in TC.. but every time I run crontab -e, this is what happens when I close the command. I'm not sure why it's doing this. I even tried a fresh install of TC just to make sure that it wasn't something that I might have caused.
