<p>Migrated comment #1591</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>Hello<br /> My Raspberry 3B is powered by a X728 board model 1.2<br /> This is why I used the script x728-v1.0.sh to install the scripts<br /> I tested both python scripts in my home folder (x728bat.py and x728pld.py) and they work OK<br /> Also the command x728off works OK<br /> <br /> My question is about CRON!<br /> I added the line &#039;@reboot python /home/pi/x728bat.py&#039; (without the single quotes) but nothing happens, i.e. if I disconnect the power and my battery goes low, nothing happens!<br /> Checking the CRON status shows I have two jobs running (456 and 458).<br /> <br /> ● cron.service - Regular background program processing daemon<br /> Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/cron.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)<br /> Active: active (running) since Sat 2021-06-26 21:49:50 CEST; 12h ago<br /> Docs: man:cron(8)<br /> Main PID: 396 (cron)<br /> Tasks: 4 (limit: 2063)<br /> CGroup: /system.slice/cron.service<br /> ├─396 /usr/sbin/cron -f<br /> ├─428 /usr/sbin/CRON -f<br /> ├─456 /bin/sh -c python /home/pi/x728bat.py<br /> └─458 python /home/pi/x728bat.py<br /> <br /> Having 2 jobs running is this as expected? <br /> When using the x728bat.py script in CRON where are the logs going?<br /> Any idea why this is not working within CRON?<br /> <br /> Thanks in advance for any help&lt;!-- migrated from Comments; original IP: 176.171.80.34 --&gt;</div>
