<p>Crontab settings are necessary for fine calculation and other related task scheduling.<br>
To make Koha cronjobs functional, follow the steps,<br>
Open a terminal and try the commands,</p>
<p>localhost:~# su<br>
localhost:~# cd /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs<br>
localhost:~# crontab -u root crontab.example<br>
localhost:~# crontab -u username crontab.example</p>
<p>Above mentioned steps should be try after the Koha installation.</p>
<p>localhost:~# crontab -e</p>
<p>change the following values there,</p>
<p># ENVIRONMENT:<br>
PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha/lib<br>
KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/koha-conf.xml</p>
