Create CronJob Using Bash Script - Need To Appear In Plesk

Question

I need to create a cron job using a bash script I found this on SO - How to create a cron job using Bash

But i need it to appear in Plesk control panel in Scheduled Tasks.

Any ideas

Answer 1

Plesk panel use a database called PSA. I do not have any plesk installation at the moment!

I suggest you connect to mysql psa database and look for the cron table (usually, the table name is self explanatory), you create a false cron trough plesk to see the changes made on that database,and you add yours!

Answer 2

Instead of using crontab like the example you are using, create your script and add it to your scheduled items in the plesk GUI. Here is a nice little video tutorial to walk you through the task scheduling aspect of it. http://fastdot.co.uk/tutorials/plesk-windows-hosting/how-to-setup-cron-jobs-scheduled-tasks-in-plesk.html
