Hi,

Im new to fcron and my scripts dont work.

I put them for tests on /etc/fcron.hourly , also on /etc/fcron.minutely and nothing happens.

I made them executable with chmod +x filename.

Thanks

Hi @max_7 ,

I have the wio addon and it has a helper script in fcron.minutely and that seems to be working.

I created a quick script to append the date to a file and added it into fcron.minutely and it is running successfully every minute.

Did you test that your script worked before putting it into fcron.minutely. Try running the scripts manually and see if they do what you expect.
