Rails cron whenever, bundle: command not found

Question

I am trying to use whenever to execute a rake task onces a day. Im getting this error

/bin/bash: bundle: command not found
/home/app/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.2-p         


        

Answer 1

After so many try outs the following seems to work

Type the following from terminal

1. Type crontab -e This opens the crontab for editing. You will see two lines as below:

   # cron clears out environment variables, but Rubber.root/script/rubber uses
   # "rvm do default" to run, so no longer any need to setup ruby env vars here,
   # all we need is PATH
   PATH=//bundle/ruby/1.9.1/bin:/usr/local/rvm/gems
   

   AND

   # Begin Whenever generated tasks for: /mnt/wamjoke-production/releases/20120912$
   PATH=//shared/bundle/ruby/1.9.1/bin:/usr/local/rvm/gems
   

2. Comment out both lines beginning with PATH.

Do the above step whenever you run "bundle exec whenever" command. And it works.

No idea why PATH is misleading the environment.
