#Linux question - 2 parts. Distro: OpenSuse
1 - I'm not sure my scripts in /etc/cron.hourly\daily\monthly are being run. Is there something I'm supposed to do to enable that? Yes, they have executable permissions, and the scripts run without error if I manually run them (ie # bash /etc/cron.<time>/<script> )
2 - Suggestions on a way to be notified when a script is run? Machine in question is no-gui, a server.
I don't care if it's a notification on my other Linux machines on lan, or an IM
2 (continued) - I'd even be fine if it was some sort of message I see when I log in to the server over ssh. Maybe there's a way to do it via kconnect, but I don't know of a way without a GUI. Telegram? Matrix? XMPP? Email would work, if that's my only option, but it's not idea.
Hell, a Home Assistant trigger would work!
Just ANYTHING to know if the script ran at the time it was supposed to run.
I need to rule out my scripts being shit. They work when manually run, but I want to be CERTAIN!
@hellomiakoda just have it log to a file? or if you want it in home assistant just use a webhook
@hellomiakoda I mean yeah
@hellomiakoda literally just send a get request
@noiob Yeah, once I was typing that, the webhook sounds like a decent idea. I don't know how to trigger a webhook with a script though. I'm assuming curl something something
