I've created a crontab with Gnome scheduler.
The command works fine in Terminal.
Nothing happens at the set time in Gnome-Scheduler.
If I go in Gnome-Scheduler and run the task manually, it works fine (although asks me for a couple of prompts first "Are you sure you want to run this task now" and
Note about working directory of executed tasks:
Recurrent tasks will be run from the home directory, one-time tasks from the directory where Gnome schedule was run from at the time of task creation (normally the home directory).
I click OK & it runs fine.
Does anyone know what's happening?
The task is cd /home/username/torrents;btdownloadgui.bittornado movie.torrent
