<p>I forgot to tell you that what I have given you is for the <b>sysop
</b>user and the <b>spider </b>group, if you do not define it
that way, you will have to adapt it.</p>

<p>Keith,</p>
<p>Try doing this:<br>
<br>
su - sysop -c "cd /home/sysop"<br>
su - sysop -c "chown -R sysop.spider spider"<br>
su - sysop -c "find ./ -type d -exec chmod 2775 {} \;"<br>
su - sysop -c "find ./ -type f -exec chmod 775 {} \;"<br>

I don't have '&&' I use ';'. Look at my crontab:<br>

Right, I’ve spent two days with this and I’m now pulling out
what little hair I have left.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I’ve built a new cluster and I’m trying to get (to start
with), my FCC database updated via crontab.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I’ve added sysop into the SUDO group.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I’m running a Raspberry Pi with DXSpider v1.57 (build 451).</div>

<div>I’m logged onto the Pi as sysop, then I’ve done a sudo su
because otherwise I can’t write to /spider/local_cmd</div>

<div><span style="font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures">I’m
quite sure this is going to be something simple but I’ve
stared at it for so long now that I need to refer to Dirk’s

good, strong tea - preferably in pint mugs. A tin hat, stout
boots, a rucksack with survival rations and a decent miners'
lamp might also prove comforting.</div>

<div>Please, can someone point me in the right direction.</div>
