Javan Whenever Gem is sending me the output as local mail

Question

Javan's Whenever gem for Ruby on Rails is fantastic, however, I'm having one issue with it, namely that it sends whatever output I've logged to /var/mail/user, which I don't want to receive. Does anyone know how to turn this off?

Thanks,

Harris

Answer 1

Whenever allows also to direct standard output and errors differently, for example to /dev/null if you don't want any mail or logging. For details, see: https://github.com/javan/whenever/wiki/Output-redirection-aka-logging-your-cron-jobs

Answer 2

env :MAILTO, ""
