JojieRT Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 I tried a hosted domain email (but not mx'd locally) and a gmail account email and did not get an email notification on either. Is this a known issue? Thanks. George Quote
Tony Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 It only emails when there is output. Is there any actual output? If you redirect to say /dev/null there will not be or if you use -q on a PHP script. There are other cases to but I cannot remember those off the top of my head. Quote
JojieRT Posted October 23, 2009 Author Report Posted October 23, 2009 OK, I included -v to tar and I get an email. Thanks. George Quote
Cody R. Posted October 24, 2009 Report Posted October 24, 2009 OK, I included -v to tar and I get an email. Thanks. George Just to elaborate on why this works (in case anyone finds this useful in the future) the -v means verbose output - meaning the script will be verbose and ouput text. As a result the cron will e-mail the output Quote
