- What steps could someone else take to reproduce the issue you’re having?
I have a bash script to update ghost.
#!/usr/bin/bash
DIR=/var/www
sudo -u ghostUser bash << EOF
cd $DIR/talescript && ghost update && \
cd $DIR/johnswebsite && ghost update
EOF
as an aside, I’m not too sure if using sudo in the script is a good practice or not
I’ve added a nopasswd into visudo
ghostUser ALL=(ghostUser) NOPASSWD: /home/ghostUser/bin/update_ghost.sh
The cronjob was created using root sudo crontab -e
25 13 * * * /usr/bin/bash /home/ghostUser/bin/update_ghost.sh >> /home/ghostUser/bin/ghost_error.log 2>&1
After an extensive search, this is the closest workable suggestion I have managed to find but I am not entirely sure if it is the correct solution [Using Ghost-CLI programatically · Issue #721 · TryGhost/Ghost-CLI · GitHub](https://Using Ghost-CLI programatically) (honestly I didn’t quite understand the proposed solution)
**EDIT:**So, I changed from using the root crontab to using the users crontab crontab -e and managed to get rid of the errors, however, it is not updating to the new version of ghost
cat ghost_error.log
