Hi there,
So I'm currently following a guide from Joshua Parker Ruehling detailing how to setup a Owncloud server (Guide here). One of the steps near the end of the guide instructs the user to enter in the command:
I understand that this is for setting up a crontab for the user 'www'. Problem is, the command brings up unknown/blank lines of text that I cannot enter info into.
(Refer to attached picture)
I heard that when using this command, it should bring up a text editor to use for me to paste in contents. What am I doing wrong here?
So my question would be, How would I setup a cronjob using this command (specified above)
or
How would I go about manually creating a text document and entering the cronjob contents? (where, what filename, what kind of permissions does the file need to have?)
PS: I'm accessing this CLI via tcsh shell from freenas CLI
I would be grateful,
Thanks in advance,
Michael L.
