Subject: Different Result using ps -efW (Manual & Cron)
Date: Thu, 20 Jun 2013 08:33:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1371716521.698.YahooMailNeo@web162103.mail.bf1.yahoo.com> (raw)
Hi,
I made a simple script that should detect if a certain service is running or not. Said script will run via cron.
When I tested it and executed it manually in the command prompt, it list all Cygwin and Windows processes. But when I put it in cron, the number of services detected were not the same. Account used is the same during manual execution and also on cron.
To get the list of services, I use this command /usr/bin/ps -efW.
Do you have any idea why such behavior? Help is very much appreciated. Thanks.
Regards,
Jun
