I am trying to get a program to run every minute using crontab.
using crontab -e I have set up the following.
* * * * * /programpath etc.
The program simply waits a random number of extra seconds and saves the time
before the wait and after to a file.
Running it from the command line. It works.
However nothing seems to happen from the crontab.
Any ideas what is wrong?
