Why is my Echo not working in Cron?
So you can’t expect to see asdf on your console. Next check the file by doing a tail: And if it’s not, check if the cron daemon itself is running or is down: For me * * * * * /bin/echo text > file is not working…I don’t know why, previleges and everything is set.
Why did my crontab not trigger when Cron failed?
Most likely, when cron fails, it generates an email to the user id of the cron job on that computer. If you don’t have an MTA working on your computer, or you aren’t reading or forwarding that mail somewhere else, you won’t see that message, even if the MTA is working.
Why is cronjob not running in Linux stack overflow?
Lists all the user’s cron tasks. Starts edit session of your crontab file. When you exit the editor, the modified crontab is installed automatically. Removes your crontab entry from the cron spooler, but not from crontab file. Another reason crontab will fail: Special handling of the % character.
How to re-enable standard output in cronjob?
Re-enable the standard output or standard error message output by removing >/dev/null 2>&1 altogether; or perhaps redirect to a file in a location where you have write access: >>cron.out 2>&1 will append standard output and standard error to cron.out in the invoking user’s home directory.
Why is Echo not running Stack Overflow working?

Why does echoing to / Dev / stdout not work?
The reason this doesn’t work is because /dev/stdout is a link to STDOUT of the process accessing it. So by doing foo > /dev/stdout, you’re saying “redirect my STDOUT to my STDOUT”. Kinda doesn’t do anything :-).
