[Koha] Cronjob

[MARC FELIX]

Thanks so much for your assistance. My koha is now indexing automatically. Am am however having problem making the backup script backup.sh to back up automatically though its working fine when i run it both from webmin and the terminal. Do you have an idea what could be the issue?

Marc,
what is marcel said is that your script may not be finding the variables.

Try the following, write a script with

#!/bin/bash
export KOHA_CONF=/path/to/koha/conf
export PERL5LIB=/path/to/koha/lib

/usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -z

then chmod +x that script, and finally
call that script from cron

*/5 * * * * /path/to/script > /dev/null

Regards,
Bernardo
