please explain what commands has to be written in linux chrontab to make it up ?

Answer 1

NOTE: You can no longer run dev/tools/cron.sh because the script has been removed.

The three following commands can each be used to verify if the crond (the cron service) is running.

/etc/init.d/crond status

service crond status

systemctl status crond

After running any of the above commands, if you find the crond service is not running, you can start it with one of the following.

/etc/init.d/crond start

service crond start

systemctl start crond

/var/log/cron

Once you know that the cron is enabled, not silenced, and crond is running, then it’s time to check the cron log, located in the path of /var/log/cron.

cat /var/log/cron
