here's cron log file that I have

[Kevin Hodle]

If you havent already tried, I would put the entry in /etc/crontab
instead of wherever you already have it.  There should already be a
/etc/crontab with examples for you to look at (although I could be
wrong, but redhat and suse definitely will have it).  It looks like the
perl module errors you are getting might be a permissions issue as well.

You know what,

I tried with the one you pointed that out.

5 * * * * root /usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin/calendarcron

It still got a zero byte in it.

Someone  mentioned that I need to make it world-writable for
calendar.html

That's not what I intended.

Here's what I got in the cron log file.

ns1 [153] ## tail log
<  root 3914 c Thu Feb 13 10:35:01 2003 rc=2
>  CMD: /usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin/calendar.cgi >
/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/calendar.html 
>  root 3976 c Thu Feb 13 11:35:00 2003
<  root 3976 c Thu Feb 13 11:35:00 2003 rc=2
>  CMD: /usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin/calendar.cgi >
/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/calendar.html 
>  root 4031 c Thu Feb 13 12:35:00 2003
<  root 4031 c Thu Feb 13 12:35:01 2003 rc=2
>  CMD: root /usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin/calendarcron
>  root 4045 c Thu Feb 13 12:42:00 2003
<  root 4045 c Thu Feb 13 12:42:00 2003 rc=1

by the way, calendarcron is the perl script that I created.

I'm not sure how I can  interpret this.
