Seconds and Destroy?

[viatropos]

Newbee questions :)

How do I specify the crontask to be run every second (min/hr/day/mo
are documented)?

How do I destroy the crontask?

Thank you!

Cron's smallest interval is minutes so it's not possible to do every
second. To stop a cron job you need to edit your crontab file and
remove that entry (or remove it from your schedule.rb file and and run
`whenever' again).

Perhaps you should look at creating deamon instead -- http://daemons.rubyforge.org/

Thank you, that was helpful. It's working now.

The minimum setting for cron is 1 minute. If you need something more
granular than that then you will have to find a different scheduling
solution.
