Hi :)

I need to remove all files and dir into /mydir/ any 60 minutes

I have setting thi on Cpanel cronjob

find /home/myuser/public_html/mydir/ -cmin +60 -exec rm -rf {} \;

It's ok, only problem is that dir /mydir/ is deleted :'(

thx

find /home/myuser/public_html/mydir/* -depth -cmin +60 -exec rm -rf {} \;

The * says only look at stuff inside mydir, not mydir itself. And the -depth should eliminate any file/directory not found errors.

I have another question about it

I receive any hour a email:
find: /myuser/public_html/mydir/*: No such file or directory

how tell with cron to not sent email IF files/dir not found?
