PlexWatch Crontab not running

[razloga]

I installed PlexWatch following this guide: http://forums.nas4free.org/viewtopic.php?t=7891

Everything seems to be working fine with one exception.

When I test PlexWatch (step 7) it shows up the views, etc just fine.
But when I went through step 8, plexwatch.pl doesn't seem to be running:

8) Set up cronjob

Now we want this script to run on an endless loop so that we don't miss any activity and also so that we don't have to sit in front of a command window constantly executing /opt/plexWatch/plexWatch.pl. That would be a horrible life and the yield would probably not be worth the effort.

CODE: SELECT ALL
nano /etc/crontab
and add the lines:

CODE: SELECT ALL
#Plexwatch all the dam time
* * * * * root /opt/plexWatch/plexWatch.pl
That's it. You're all set for the core of the backend.

I had plexwatch set up before I updated to 9.3 and it was great..

Any ideas/suggestions?

I have rebooted, restarted apache, shut down (waited 5 minutes, then booted) several times..
Not sure what else I can try..

hmm..
so plexwatch shows me currently playing things, but doesn't seem to want to log to history/stats, etc..
