MikeJ Posted January 30, 2004 Posted January 30, 2004 I've been editing my crons with the advance cron cpanel option (although I think standard has the same problem). The problem is one of my cron tasks (a call to a perl script with arguments) contains quotes "". From what I can tell, cpanel properly creates the crontab with the quotes, but when it reads it back in for display/editing, it loses everything on the line from the first quote on. The consequence is every time I update any cron task, the line with quotes gets rewritten back to the crontab broken, and my task fails until I fix it again. I should be able to get around the problem for now by creating an intermediate script that calls the real script, but I'm curious if this is a bug or design flaw with cpanel, or if you guys know something about it I don't.
