我正在尝试为 AWS EBS 卷设置自动备份并使用https://github.com/colinbjohnson/aws-missing-tools/tree/master/ec2-automate-backup这样做。

available

使用的 cron 入门文件如下（cron-primer.sh）
#!/bin/bash -
# EC2_HOME required for EC2 API Tools
export EC2_HOME=/usr/local/ec2/apitools
# JAVA_HOME required for EC2 API Tools
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/
# export PATH=/bin is required for cut, date, grep
# export PATH=/opt/aws/bin/ is required for EC2 API Tools
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/ec2/apitools/bin/
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY=XXXXXX
export AWS_SECRET_KEY=XXXXXX
# The environmental variable names seem to have changed
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=XXXXXX
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=XXXXXX
（请注意，唯一需要的环境变量是 AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID 和 AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY，但我保留了其他变量，因为它们已被旧的 EC2 CLI 实现使用）
直接从控制台执行此操作时，脚本运行完美，但当我从 cronjob 运行脚本时，它不起作用。通过电子邮件发送以下错误：
In order to use , the executable "aws" must be installed.
请注意，此错误来自脚本中的第 8 行。该消息推断无法找到 aws 可执行文件，但 /usr/local/bin 中有一个指向该文件的符号链接，该文件包含在 PATH 变量中。此外，可以看到 $0 变量 ($app_name) 似乎为空，因为它没有打印。（在我正确安装 AWS CLI 之前，从控制台运行时正确打印了同样的错误，所以我知道脚本本身没有错误）
crontab 如下所示：
8 * * * * /usr/local/ec2/scripts/ec2-automate-backup.sh -r eu-west-1 -s tag -t "Backup,Values=true" -k 7 -p -n -c /usr/local/ec2/scripts/cron-primer.sh
另外，我更愿意将脚本的结果输出到文件中，为此，我使用 cronjob 作为
8 * * * * /usr/local/ec2/scripts/ec2-automate-backup.sh -r eu-west-1 -s tag -t "Backup,Values=true" -k 1 -p -n -c /usr/local/ec2/scripts/cron-primer.sh &> /var/log/ebs_backup/ec2-automate-backup_`date +"%Y%m%d"`.log
该文件没有创建，如果有人能指出该文件没有创建的原因（目标文件夹中的权限正确），将不胜感激
答案1
函数prerequisite_check定义说，basename, cut, date并且aws命令应该可用。
aws从 运行时，脚本无法找到命令crontab。因此，您遇到了错误。
在中crontab，您需要修改 PATH 变量以包含path可执行aws文件，方法是将其写入cron行前。
您可以使用以下语法在中添加path变量crontab。
~]$ crontab -l
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
50 1 * * * sh /home/user/mybackupjob.sh
答案2
似乎问题与以下线路有关
prerequisite_check
在脚本中，该脚本放置在所有变量设置之前。我将检查移到 cron primer 链接的位置下方，一切正常。奇怪的是，如此常用的脚本出现这样的错误却没有人报告。我假设这个错误是在最近的更新中引入的
简而言之，所描述的症状与未设置的 PATH 变量有关，未设置的原因是由于所用脚本中的错误。
