Hi guys, I cant put my crontab to work. I’m on Ubuntu 14.04x64
So, this is what I did:
.root .pw .sudo apt-get update .sudo apt-get install nodejs .sudo apt-get install npm .curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.11.1/install.sh | bash [I reload Putty] .nvm install 0.12 .npm install steam [Now I go to filezilla, upload the file.js into root directory] .nvm use 0.12 .node file.js [It executes the file.js sucessfuly, I reload Putty] .nvm use 0.12 .npm install forever -g .forever start file.js [It will execute the file.js infinitely]
Now I want a restart to execute this commands. The thing is that “forever start” will not execute if I dont execute the “nvm use 0.12” in first place.
So: .crontab -e .nano .*/5 * * * * nvm use 0.12 && forever start file.js ctrl + x saved
Result: It doesn’t restarts.
What I’m doing wrong? Thanks!

Found the solution myself.

Thanks anyway! :)
