You are opening a command line command with a command line command. That won't work.


osascript  "iMac HD:Library:Scripts:Universal Scripts:EjectStuff"
"osascript  iMac HD:Library:Scripts:Universal Scripts:EjectStuff"
"osascript  /Library:Scripts:Universal Scripts:EjectStuff"
"osascript  ~Library:Scripts:Universal Scripts:EjectStuff"

Osascript takes POSIX paths. This is apparently in the system's Library folder, so you would use:


"osascript /Library/Scripts/Universal\ Scripts/EjectStuff.scpt"

Assuming you saved as a script. If you saved as an app:

"open /Library/Scripts/Universal\ Scripts/EjectStuff.app"


Still haven't had any luck.

You can't just run it from cron, you have to run "osascript ~/path/ to/script.scpt

Hi,

I have this script (Application) that is called by Cron every night. So far all that happens is that Smile is opened and the application is opened for editing.
So far if I run the script from smile it works fine. But not from Cron.


Is there something here that's not allowed?

set stuffItem to "Stuff ƒ"

try
	tell application "Finder"
		if exists (alias stuffItem) then
			eject (alias stuffItem)
		end if
	end tell
	quit
end try

Tia,

Robert Poland
