Hi all,
Please anybody help me, I faced the problem with my "crontab". I tried to run a shell script which will fetch webpage and save it toa directory by using wget but after few minute I cannot see any filein such directory
Below are content of shell script, my crontab and also
file's permission listing.

/usr/local/bin/wget --no-cache -a ${LOGPATH}/fetch.log -O ${LOGPATH}/${TIMESTAMP}.html http://www.blahblah.com
