[SOLVED] Shell script not running from cron?

[Tim Curtis]

Sounds like some sort of permissions problem with the rclone binary especially since it's being run via ./rclone instead of just rclone.

I'm not sure how you installed it but typically it would be installed via standard apt like below and the binary would be in /usr/bin which is always in the global path so no need for specific path to it.

Code:

pi@moode9:~ $ sudo apt -y install rclone
