Adam Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Create a plain text file with your cron job in. For example: 0 0 * * 1 command to be executed You'll then need to use the crontab program to install the cronjob: crontab /path/to/cronjob/file You can then check the cronjob was installed successfully with: crontab -l Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/213282-how-to-set-crontab-every-week/#findComment-1110526 Share on other sites More sharing options...
