Dear Rob,
in general, BaseX runs fine when being invoked via cronjobs. Next, I just reproduced your scenario and didn’t encounter any surprises (I have no idea, though, what‘s happening inside your script).
3 - line in my bash script is "/home/xxx/basex/bin/basexclient -Uxxx
-Pxxx <
/home/xxx/load.bxs"
You may need to remove the last "<", as there is no need to redirect the file contents to the client:
/home/xxx/basex/bin/basexclient -Uxxx -Pxxx /home/xxx/load.bxs
Hope this helps, Christian ___________________________

- Which user's crontab is that line in, the user's you've been testing

- `home/xxx` looks weird, do you probably mean `/home/xxx`?
- What's inside your `basexjob.sh`?
On Andria's comments:
I don't know if you can use sequence of commands on crontab
That's fine.
while I would use "/home/xxx/basexjob.sh" instead of "cd home/xxx; ./basexjob.sh"
The script could depend on the current path. If it doesn't, I'd prefer that, too.
