As an example, I've placed a simple program on on the path home/pi to test.
My crontab script is
* * * * * /pi/testcron.py
and I haven`t got any results. I've tried other scripts -recommended here- but without success.
I appreciate any support I can receive.
Based on the comments, it looks like you're expecting to see output from the print function. The problem is, since cron is running the script in another shell/terminal, you won't see print output even if it is running correctly. For example, if you open up two terminal windows, and run your script manually in one window, you won't see your print output in the other. In order to leave a lasting effect, use a redirect for the print output. This will open a new file that you'll be able to inspect after the cronjob has run.
As others have said, you'll likely need to include the full path to your python installation. The common sys install path is /usr/bin/python3. So, you should do something like:
* * * * * /usr/bin/python3 /home/pi/testcron.py > /home/my_output.txt
The last part > /home/my_output.txt will redirect the output of the print function to the file /home/my_output.txt. After the crontab runs, you should be able to open the file and the output of the print command.
Please do not copy/paste this exactly as-is and expect it to work without doing some sanity checking! Make sure that the directories are correct! For example, /home/pi/testcron.py should be the full path to your python file. We are just guessing at your file structure, we don't know what it looks like.
