Migrating over to ASL3 having issues with using the Crontab, is it still used?
tried the following:
00 06 * * * /etc/asterisk/local/ConDis.sh *3(connect to nodenumber)
where ConDis.sh is /usr/bin/asterisk -rx “rpt fun (mynodenumber) $1”
and the node is not connecting
when I run "rpt fun (mynodenumber) *3(connect to nodenumber)
the node connects just fine.
the node also connects and disconnects just fine in Supermon 7.4
does ASL3 us the Crontab or is it in the bottom of the rpt.conf under schedules
Cron jobs still work.
root@wa3wco-rpi:~# mkdir -p /etc/asterisk/local
root@wa3wco-rpi:~# cat <<‘EOT’ > /etc/asterisk/local/ConDis.sh
#!/bin/sh
date >> /tmp/ConDis-out.txt
echo $0 $1 >> /tmp/ConDis-out.txt
_EOT_
root@wa3wco-rpi:~# chmod 755 /etc/asterisk/local/ConDis.sh
root@wa3wco-rpi:~# crontab -e (add a line to test the script)
root@wa3wco-rpi:~# crontab -l | grep -v “^#”
* * * * * /etc/asterisk/local/ConDis.sh *312345
wait a few minutes for the cron jobs to exec
root@wa3wco-rpi:~# cat /tmp/ConDis-out.txt
Tue 9 Jul 09:06:01 EDT 2024
/etc/asterisk/local/ConDis.sh *312345
Tue 9 Jul 09:07:01 EDT 2024
/etc/asterisk/local/ConDis.sh *312345
and don’t forget to remove (or update) the crontab line
Remeber to check that the script works on it’s own.
