Title: Calling s3sync.rb from cron, s3config.yml not getting found Post by: cleaner416 on September 18, 2007, 04:34:47 PM First off, thanks for the development of this great tool.
I am trying to automate my syncs via cron, but I'm having some trouble with syntax and getting the script to pickup s3config.yml. I'm using this command: (Fedora FC5) /usr/bin/ruby /root/s3sync/s3sync.rb -r --ssl /my_dir_to_backup bucket:pre Unfortunately, this command only works when I'm in /root/s3sync, and elsewhere errors on the require s3config line (~19).

cd /root/s3sync && /usr/bin/ruby ./s3sync.rb -r --ssl /my_dir_to_backup bucket:pre Since you're fully qualifying the path to backup, the location the script runs from doesn't matter for the process, so this just starts it out in the "installed" directory. - Jon Title: Re: Calling s3sync.rb from cron, s3config.yml not getting found Post by: IanTegebo on November 29, 2007, 04:38:27 AM I updated s3config.rb to use
