Hi.<br>
<br>
I was wondering what methods you use to make osm2pgsql be quiet when
run by crontab. It is very annoying to receive a
everything-is-normal message every time I run it. I run it from
within a shellscript since I need to execute other commands before
and after it runs.<br>
<br>
Internet search resulted in a github fork[1] where somebody
implemented a quiet support but hasn't been accepted into the main
distribution. I tried the -q, --quiet and --silent parameters. I
also tried to stick '> /dev/null' and '> /dev/null
2>&1' at the end of the osm2pgsql command within the
shellscript with no effect.<br>
<br>
The only viable solution left, it seems, is to turn off e-mails from
crontab completely. However, I do have other processes which I need
to receive error messages from, including those within the
shellscript.<br>
<br>
What would you recommend?<br>
