Simple Cron Script.... (bad interpreter)?

[jvanv8]

I tried to run a simple cron from a custom script by entering the script in the "Command" section under the "Crontab Tasks"
My script was as follows:

ls

As you can see, I just wanted to see if it worked. I got an email with the error message:

line 1: 
ls
: command not found

So I saw that some people start their scripts with some stuff at the beginning called "shebang"(?) I think. Anyway, I changed my script to this:

#!/bin/sh
ls

When this was run, I get the email:

/bin/sh: /home/httpd/vhosts/mydomain.com/httpdocs/cronjobs/my_cron: /bin/sh
ls

: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

What the heck? How can I fix this script so it works with Plesk?

change your command to be the absolute path..

/bin/ls
