callmeedin Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 So I have a script (code below) that is supposed to delete nfo, sfv and srr files from my movies & tv_shows folders. I have scheduled the script with the following entry in the GO file echo "/boot/delete_video_info_files" | at 3:00 and when I restart the server I get the message that the script will be executed the next morning at 3:00. However the script never runs automatically, or if it runs it doesn't delete any files. It works flawlessly when manually run. What am I missing? Is the "spin-down" of the drives causing this (hence I put the sleep 10 in my script") or something else? Thanks in advance for your help. ------script start------ #!/bin/sh cd /mnt/user/movies ls sleep 10 touch edin.nfo find . -name '*.nfo' -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rm touch edin.sfv find . -name '*.sfv' -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rm touch edin.srr find . -name '*.srr' -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rm cd /mnt/user/tv_shows ls sleep 10 touch edin.nfo find . -name '*.nfo' -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rm touch edin.sfv find . -name '*.sfv' -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rm touch edin.srr find . -name '*.srr' -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rm -------script end--------- Link to comment
