Scheduled LED control not working for me

[rslarsen]

I created three scripts "services-start", "ledsoff.sh","ledson.sh" as WIKI says
placed them in /jffs/scripts/

executed this command "cru l" in putty

admin@RT-AC66U:/tmp/home/root# cru l
0 18 * * * /jffs/scripts/ledsoff.sh #lightsoff#
0 6 * * * /jffs/scripts/ledson.sh #lightson#
admin@RT-AC66U:/tmp/home/root#

But the LED light is still on. What do I wrong?

Try manually running the scripts to ensure they are properly encoded and actually work. Note that you cannot use Notepad, you need a text editor capable of saving files with a UNIX encoding, such as Notepad++ or Textpad.

Hi Rene,

Did you set the execute-flag to the scripts?
Punch or copy into Putty somthing like:

chmod a+x /jffs/scripts/*

And then try to execute the scripts manually:

./jffs/scripts/ledsoff.sh
./jffs/scripts/ledson.sh

With kind regards
Joe

It work now, when I do what joegreat wirtes.
I think the problem was the execute-flag to the scripts was set to 755 instead of 777.
Thanks

This is what worked for me.
I think the complete info is in the wiki provided by RMerlin.
