Hello Duane, I would try this in crontab -e * * * * * /etc/asterisk/scripts/announcements01.sh David On Fri, Jan 27, 2017 at 6:43 AM, DuaneVT . <selkie2@comcast.net> wrote:

I finally got to the root mail to see what errors crontab was finding with running this script. I have crontab calling ann01.sh script and the script is running. The ann01.sh and prompt01.gsm files are in /etc/asterisk/scripts. Both files and the scripts folder are set as executable. The ann01.sh script is as below:

#!/bin/bash # Script plays prompt01 audio files over local node (repeater) # Runs "localplay prompt01.gsm via IAX or radio *970

PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin :/bin:/usr/sbin/asterisk/

/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx "rpt localplay /etc/asterisk/scripts/prompt01" # error "can't open ann01"

sudo asterisk -rx "rpt fun 42996 *970" # error "can't open ann01" asterisk -rx "rpt fun 42996 *970" # error "can't open ann01" /usr/sbin/asterisk -rx "rpt fun 42996 *970" # error "can't open ann01" echo "Hello World" >> test # runs fine!

--------------------------------------------- I can hit *970 on the radio and hear the localplay run the prompt01 speech. I can type ann01 via ssh and the prompt01 is heard. I just can't get the ann01.sh script to run from cron!

Help! Duane KA1LM
