    My costastats is now working just fine. The only problem still remaining is that I have to do the update by hand. Do anyone have a tip on how you get perl to execute in the crontab?? I have tryed something like this: 19 06 * * 6 /costa/perl -w genindex.pl  , but it does not work.

      ffne unter deinem Benutzername den aktuellen crontab mit: crontab -e
      Nun kannst du ihn in vi editieren. Fge einfach eine neue Zeile hinzu: 30 4 * * 6 /costa/perl -w genindex.pl

      This means genindex.pl is executed every month, every week, every saturday at 4.30. (24h format).

      My problem is not to edit my crontabs. The problem is that the perl command does not seem to  execute with the path in my example.

      Fixed the problem my self! Had to edit the .pl files and change the path to the .xml files.

      What a nice idea, executing COSTA scripts automatically. I never thought about it, but it is very sensible. I will describe automatic execution of the scripts on the HOWTO page for both Windows and Linux
