[GRASS-user] Run grass console from a cronjob

[Nick Jachowski]

I've had this problem from cron before and a solution I've found is to
print all the environment variables using the linux command "printenv".

Run printenv from your console and from the cron then compare the output
and see what's different.

Then when you find the critical differences set those variables from the
head of your bash script you use on the cron.

sample output from printenv:
