Question

On Redhat, using Whenever. My cron jobs fail to run hourly. I need help as to why.

Schedule.rb

every 1.hours do
  rake "deathburrito:all", :environment => "development"
  rake "bamboo:all", :environment => "development"
  rake "jira:grab_data", :environment => "development"
end

Crontab -l

0 * * * * /bin/bash -l -c 'cd /var/www/qadashboard && RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake deathburrito:all --silent'

0 * * * * /bin/bash -l -c 'cd /var/www/qadashboard && RAILS_ENV=development bundle exec rake bamboo:all --silent'

0 * * * * /bin/bash -l -c 'cd /var/www/qadashboard && RAILS_ENV=development bundle exec rake jira:grab_data --silent'

Can anyone help me? I am not even sure what else I should be checking.

Answer 1

bundle will have to be in that subshell’s path. Try specifying a full-blown /usr/bin/bundle (or whatever it is).
