I have installed cron via the installer and configured it with cron-config to run as a system service. Mar 10 14:11:33 stefan-PC cron: PID 3408: `cron' service started This is stefan's crontab, generated with crontab -e. */10 * * * * /cygdrive/c/Users/stefan/copy_from_fileserver According to /var/log/messages the cron job is executed correctly, but no test file is generated in the directory. Calling copy_from_fileserver from the command line works without complications and copies the file from the server as it should. Mar 10 14:40:01 stefan-PC /usr/sbin/cron: PID 2340: (stefan) CMD (/cygdrive/c/Users/stefan/copy_from_fileserver) How can I get this working?
