script with symcli command not work in cron

[Michael Schulte zur Sur]

Hi Simon,

since you do not redirect errors, you might find error ouput in mail.
If the command ran, it should have created /tmp/bcv_list no matter what other errors come from the programme.
Can you post the crontab entry?

use:
#!/usr/bin/ksh
export SYMCLI_DB_FILE=/var/symapi/db/symapi_db.bin
/usr/symcli/bin/symmir -g bcv1 query > /tmp/bcv_list 2>&1


greetings,

Michael
