I have written the code to fetch data from opensearch in python script.
The last record printed through the python script is:
Connection done 2023-08-16 04:49:26.896033
Last input time of the retrieved records: 2023-07-20T12:31:41
But when I schedule the python script to run as cron job then the output of the last record shows the timestamp as :
2023-08-16T10:00:01+0000 - Running cron job...
Connection done
Last input time of the retrieved records: 2023-07-20T18:01:59
There is a mismatch in data. I cannot provide the code for the python script. But I have scheduled the cron job to run every hour like this:
0 * * * * /usr/bin/env bash -c 'echo "$(date -u +\%Y-\%m-\%dT\%H:\%M:\%S\%z) - Running cron job..." >> /home/opc/output.log && /usr/bin/python3 /home/opc/path/to/script/python.py >> /home/opc/output.log 2>&1'.
If I run the script;
/usr/bin/env bash -c 'echo "$(date -u +\%Y-\%m-\%dT\%H:\%M:\%S\%z) - Running cron job..." >> /home/opc/output.log && /usr/bin/python3 /home/opc/path/to/script/python.py >> /home/opc/output.log 2>&1'
then the data printed is correctly but not as cron job.
Have I scheduled the cron job incorrectly?
Can anyone help me.
I want the cron job to provide the exact data as the python script.
