at command is not executed

Question

I am trying to make the at bash command to run, but it is not working for me. I can add a job to the queue, but it is not run when the time is up. What am I doi

Answer 1

It is working fine. It's just that commands running with at don't write their output to the terminal that you called it from.

Try:

at now +2 minutes
echo TTTEEEST > new_file_test

You'll see the file appear in two minutes.
