thanks in advance...

Is this is how you will execute in command line also ?
/home/inamorato/Desktop/psm/execute-server.py

Or you will execute in some other way, if so then you should place that command in the crontab. And i believe there can be some permission related issues ?

yaya thanx sathiyamoorthy.... i alrd found the way to solve it...

And in the spirit of the community, can you share the solution?

crontab cannot find the config file...
so create another .sh file put like this:

cd /home/inamorato/Desktop/psm/
/home/inamorato/Desktop/psm/execute-server.py




then solve...
