Bash script is not running in my crontab (AWS ec2 linux)

问题

Following has been set to crontab:

PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
* * * * * /var/www/NODE_PROJECT/cron-bash.sh

cron-bash.sh has following code :

#!/bin/bash
echo "Job initiated !!!"
node app.js

I can see error log as

CROND[17889]: (root) CMD (/var/www/NODE_PROJECT/cron-bash.sh)

First you should be sure your script is executable

chmod +rx /var/www/NODE_PROJECT/cron-bash.sh

then add source to you bash profile and absolute paths

#!/bin/bash
source ~/.bash_profile #or .bashrc
echo "Job initiated !!!"
/path/to/node /path/to/app.js

or last line can be

cd /path/to #app.js file
/path/to/node app.js

And consider if you really need to run this app every minute
