[GRASS-user] Run grass console from a cronjob

[Andrea Peri]

Hi,
thx for help Vaclav

I was trying to run a shell script with a start of a grass and many
grass command inside it.
Not only a grass call.

As reported few minutes ago,
I resolve my issue .
Printing the environment variables (using the printenv utility)
I see that the crontab start a sh-shell, but my script was for a bash.shell.

So the solution was simply to add the usually.
#!/bin/bash
in the head of script.

Regards and thx to all for your help.
