      OK, I got my Site Documentation fixed within the GUI and have developed a script to generate the documentation from the command line. I can run the script successfully from command line and have setup a cron to run periodically to update the documentation. The cron job shows the script executing but the files are not generating. Am I missing something?

      Below is the script and the setup cron job

      Script

      Code:


      #!/bin/bash

      cd /home/hci
      source .profile
      export CL_INSTALL_DIR=/global/hci/cis6.1

      setroot

      setsite eis_mstr_test

      /global/hci/cis6.1/integrator/bin/hcisitedoc -s eis_mstr_test epic_adt_test epic_ent_test epic_rtf_test hasdm_res_test pss_res_test -d /global/hci/cis6.1/integrator


      Cron

      Code:



      # Refresh Cloverleaf Site Documentation
      30 9 * * * ifactive /global/hci/cis6.1/integrator/bin/autositedoc.sh >>/dev/null 2>&1

          A little more information. Running the command stand alone  in a shell I have to have the X11 option turned off. I am suspecting this is why it is not executing when told too by the cron.

            Hello Ron,

            Based on ‘#!/hci/bin/bash’ I’m guessing you are running on Linux.  Correct?

            Can you provide any detail on the ifactive script that gets called from cron before running hcisitedoc?

              Thanks Mark; but I resolved it last night. Below is the line from the cron that runs the script to update and generate the site documentation:

              30 23 * * * ifactive  export DISPLAY=:0.0;  /global/hci/cis6.1/integrator/bin/autositedoc.sh >>/dev/null 2>&1

              The autositedoc.sh is just a short script that executes the hcisitedoc for all of our cloverleaf sites and places the output in the directory we need it in.  It seems the part I was missing was the “DISPLAY=:0.0”
