| Nov 11 at 15:38 | comment | added | waltinator | This question is similar to: Why crontab doesn't execute a scheduled bash script?. If you believe it’s different, please edit the question, make it clear how it’s different and/or how the answers on that question are not helpful for your problem. | |
| Jan 20 at 22:25 | comment | added | Seamus | While it's not obvious from the title of the question, this Q&A answers the question asked here; i.e. "how can you tell if your script was started by cron?" The accepted answer addresses a flaw in the accepted answer here. | |

| Aug 31, 2012 at 12:55 | comment | added | cas | @terdon: probably because ps is fairly badly documented (especially Linux's version which supports several different syntax styles) and the man page is even more dense and cryptic than most tools. I suspect most people don't even realise just how useful and versatile a tool ps can be. | |
