Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

Trying to stop the email coming to me: msg#00044

web.wget.general

Subject: Trying to stop the email coming to me

Dear Group,

I've made the following crontab file, which works fine, except it sends me
an email every hour. I'd prefer it didn't. Here is the crontab file. I
think the problem is in the last line I added, which I'm sure will wrap
below:

# Nuke var/log/messages quarterly
#
0 1 1 1-12/3 * /bin/cat /dev/null > $HOME/var/log/messages

# Run the Urchin web log analyzer weekly
#
#59 23 * * * $HOME/usr/local/urchin/urchin > $HOME/var/log/urchin 2>&1
59 23 * * * $HOME/usr/local/urchin/urchin

# Run the phpadsnew for travel-to-honduras.com hourly
0 * * * * /usr/local/bin/wget -t 1 -T 60
http://www.travel-to-honduras.com/adsadmin/maintenance/maintenance.php -O
/dev/null



Instead of the -O in the last line, I've also tried > and >> with no better
results. The email I get is:

--03:00:00--
http://www.travel-to-honduras.com/adsadmin/maintenance/maintenance.php
=> `/dev/null'
Resolving www.travel-to-honduras.com... done.
Connecting to www.travel-to-honduras.com[128.121.98.28]:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK
Length: unspecified [text/html]
0K 0.00 B/s
03:00:00 (0.00 B/s) - `/dev/null' saved [0]

I just have had this one problem, so I am not subscribed to the wget list.
If anyone replying could CC me, that would be great. I usually don't
request that on mailing lists, but I see in the docs in this case it is OK.

Best regards,
Steve
