已接受的答案确实提供了一种使用cron将使用的环境运行脚本的方法。正如其他人指出的那样，这并不是调试cron作业所需的唯一标准。

事实上，cron也使用非交互式终端，没有附加的输入等等。

如果这有帮助的话，我已经编写了一个脚本，可以轻松地运行命令/脚本，就像由cron运行一样。使用命令/脚本作为第一个参数调用它，就没问题了。

这个脚本也托管(可能更新)在Github上。

#  * with a specific shell, which may or may not be bash

创建一个cron作业，运行env并将stdout重定向到一个文件。 使用该文件和“env -”一起创建与cron作业相同的环境。

别忘了，因为cron的父进程是init，所以它运行的程序没有控制终端。你可以用这样的工具来模拟:

六年后回答:环境不匹配问题是systemd“计时器”作为cron替代品解决的问题之一。无论您是从CLI还是通过cron运行systemd“service”，它都接收到完全相同的环境，从而避免了环境不匹配的问题。

导致cron任务在手动传递时失败的最常见问题是cron设置的限制性默认$PATH，在Ubuntu 16.04中是这样的:

"/usr/bin:/bin"

相比之下，systemd在Ubuntu 16.04上设置的默认$PATH是:

"/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"

因此，systemd计时器已经有更好的机会找到二进制文件，而不需要进一步的麻烦。

systemd计时器的缺点是，设置它们需要更多的时间。您首先创建一个“服务”文件来定义您想要运行的内容，然后创建一个“计时器”文件来定义运行它的时间表，最后“启用”计时器来激活它。

在我的例子中，cron正在使用sh执行我的脚本，它不能执行一些bash语法。 在我的脚本中，我添加了env变量SHELL:

#!/bin/bash
SHELL=/bin/bash
