I have a laravel command that generates summary jpeg file (contact sheet) from a video file, using exec('ffmpeg ...').

When I call it from command-line (like this: php artisan file:generate or su - nginx -s /bin/sh -c 'php artisan file:generate') it works, but if I have it in the crontab, it doesn't work.

Any ideas?

  • How did you set the cronjob? Check `www-data` permissions and try setting the cron with `crontab -u www-data -e` – phaberest Feb 02 '16 at 15:55
