I have a python (2.4) routine running on Gentoo Linux. It creates a file |
2 |
and, after the file is complete, renames the file using Python's os.rename() |
3 |
command. When I run the file from the command line everything works great, |
4 |
but when I schedule the job to run from the crontab file, the original file |
5 |
is created and populated, but the rename fails. I am using full paths for |
6 |
both the original and destination file, and run the command line version |
7 |
after I 'su' to the production account (named 'edith'). I am told by my |
8 |
sysadmin that the cron jobs run as edith as well, so he does not think it is |
9 |
a permission issue (he points out the original file is being created and |
10 |
populated as expected...the rename fails) |

Have any of you dealt with anything like this? It really has me scratching |
13 |
my head. |
