Need Help Executing Shell Script in Crontab.
« on: August 29, 2019, 01:06:39 PM »
So for work I'm tasked with getting a punch of PC's running Xubuntu to run a slide show at boot. The problem I'm having is that we update the slideshow daily and we are using Google Drive to store the impress files. I'm using Rclone to map the google drive account to a folder located in user but I need to move the files from the drive to the documents folder every day. I made an shell script to move the power point file to the documents folder. It work if i just run the shell script but when I make a crontab to run every minute (This is for testing purposes) it won't copy.
