Cron 作业不适用于 shell 脚本或 ruby 脚本 mac os

Question

I have a ruby script called automated_script.rb

I also have a shell script called automated_script.sh

Both of these files are located on my desktop, for now.

whenever I run ruby automated_script.rb , the script works as expected (all it does is send a text message using the twilio api)

This is what I have in automated_script.sh

#!/bin/zsh

/Users/angelgarcia/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.6.3/bin/ruby /Users/angelgarcia/Desktop/automated_script.rb 

when I navigate to my desktop in the terminal and run, ./automated_script.sh it works.

when I simply run:

/Users/angelgarcia/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.6.3/bin/ruby /Users/angelgarcia/Desktop/automated_script.rb 

in the terminal, this works too.

However , in my crontab, I have this:

* * * * * /Users/angelgarcia/Desktop/automated_script.sh

This does not work as expected.

Simply running this works: /Users/angelgarcia/Desktop/automated_script.sh But for some reason, when I put it in the crontab, it doesn't run every minute.

When I run crontab -l in my terminal, I get this:

* * * * * /Users/angelgarcia/Desktop/automated_script.sh

So I know it's active.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

EDIT

here is whats inside of my ruby file

require 'twilio-ruby'

account_sid = 'xxx'
auth_token = 'xxx'
@client = Twilio::REST::Client.new account_sid, auth_token

@client.messages.create(
  from: '999',
  to: '999',
  body: message 
)

You don't need shell to execute ruby from cron. You should be able to just pass ruby and a file to your crontab.

* * * * * ruby /Users/angelgarcia/Desktop/automated_script.rb 

Note, this will use whatever your default system ruby version is set to.
