You will need to provide details of your command line testing...

My script looks like this ledsoff.sh

#!/bin/sh

logger -s -t "($(basename $0))" $$ LEDs now switched OFF!

nvram set led_disable=1
nvram commit
service restart_leds

and I tested like this:

admin@RT-AC56U:/jffs/scripts# ls -l leds*
-rwxr-xr-x    1 admin    root           167 Feb  1 14:57 ledsoff.sh
-rwxr-xr-x    1 admin    root           164 Feb  1 14:57 ledson.sh

admin@RT-AC56U:/jffs/scripts# sed -i 's/\r//g' ledsoff.sh


admin@RT-AC56U:/jffs/scripts# ./ledsoff.sh
(ledsoff.sh): 21801 LEDs now switched OFF!

Done.
admin@RT-AC56U:/jffs/scripts#

OK, so why not give us a clue as to what happens when you type in the command?

cru a

to show the syntax you use to add the cron task.

I'm sure the problem is PEBKAC!

 

[pepeEL]

when i type cru a i have:

admin@RT-AC87U:/tmp/home/root# cru a

Cron Utility
add:    cru a <unique id> <"min hour day month week command">
delete: cru d <unique id>
list:   cru l

admin@RT-AC87U:/tmp/home/root#

but i have in /jffs/scripts/
file named services-start and in this file i have:

#!/bin/sh
cru a ledsoff "0 23 * * * /jffs/scripts/ledsoff.sh"
cru a ledson "0 7 * * * /jffs/scripts/ledson.sh"

But when i restart router and then start again and type : Cru l i have nothing:

admin@RT-AC87U:/tmp/home/root# cru l
admin@RT-AC87U:/tmp/home/root#

Two things to check...
make sure Enable JFFS custom scripts is on in the router gui
make sure your scripts are in the proper format (Linux and not DOS/Windows). How did you create the scripts?

 

[pepeEL]

In version 378.55 not have in GUI option to jffs... but in tools>sysinfo show me size jffs:

Internal Storage
NVRAM usage 45339 / 65536 bytes
JFFS 2.03 / 62.75 MB


I have create scripts in notepadd++ and it works me on old version. Two days ago i update my router to version 378.55 and reset router to default and configure from begin... and put in jffs the same script which works me on back version firmware.

In version 378.55 not have in GUI option to jffs

Good that you updated your signature We really do use that to provide help.

Do you see the syslog entry that services-start was executed?

 

[pepeEL]

i see in syslog and i found:

Jan  1 01:00:25 custom script: Found services-start, but custom script execution is disabled!

But in gui i dont have option to Enable custom scripts. Why ?

 

[MarioCaires]

In version 378.55 not have in GUI option to jffs...

In version 378.55, the option "Enable jffs custom scripts and configs" should be enabled by default if not mistaken, but if you don't even have the option then something is really wrong! I presume you checked under Administration/System...

 

[john9527]

Did you do a factory reset after loading 378.55? Merlin changed the variables when he removed the option and the new option needs to be setup.

You can try and enable it with the following:

nvram unset jffs2_on
nvram set jffs2_enable=1
nvram commit

then on reboot it should run.

 

[pepeEL]

Yes yes this option is in Administration>System
After factory reset i have set Disabled. Now i Enable it and check

EDIT
Now is started:

Jan  1 01:00:25 custom script: Running /jffs/scripts/services-start

and

admin@RT-AC87U:/tmp/home/root# cru l
0 23 * * * /jffs/scripts/ledsoff.sh #ledsoff#
0 7 * * * /jffs/scripts/ledson.sh #ledson#
admin@RT-AC87U:/tmp/home/root#

Thanks for help

I really, really do not like when signatures are used for important stuff like hardware and firmware versions. Why?

Because when others come to read in a few weeks, months or years - the sig at that time rarely matches the question and answers that followed.

I recommend to explicitly state in the post the relevant data. And if needed, each time too.

Good point!

It's not. That's the reason for this setting to exist: so if you have a custom script preventing your router from even booting, a factory default reset would disable that script, giving you back access to your router.

Right RMerlin, makes total sense!
