Environment : Ubuntu



Crontab (sudo crontab -e) : 0 0 * * * /usr/local/bin/node /var/www/GestiawebParser/index.js



Edit #1 :



which node : /usr/local/bin/node






ubuntu cron

    Add MAILTO in your cron and you should receive an email with any errors.

    @Hunter.S.Thompson program node is find since given in absolute path, however it might be a shell script (or a binary) that relay on command not in cron's $PATH value.

Crontab issues can be solved by:



  • test the script outside of crontab (you did this)

  • add a test script to ensure it's enabled (like * * * * * /bin/echo test > /test.txt)

  • use env to test and correct environment settings (a common alternative to exporting the PATH variable is to use absolute paths but obviously that only works for executables and PATH) (which, file)

  • prefix your crontab with MAILTO or otherwise collect logging information (like suffixing with >> /out.txt 2>> /err.txt; /bin/echo $? >> /return.txt)

            How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

            Image
            Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
