I need to create a cronjob in windows using ruby on rails. I am using 'whenever' gem for that but not getting proper idea about that. Please let me know if there any alternative way for that.

Thanks in advance.

The software utility cron is a time-based job scheduler in Unix-like computer operating systems. You can't use cron because you're using Windows. I suggest you try cygwin

Cygwin is:

a large collection of GNU and Open Source tools which provide functionality similar to a Linux distribution on Windows.

Cygwin is not:

a way to run native Linux apps on Windows. You must rebuild your application from source if you want it to run on Windows.

How do you run a crontab in Cygwin on Windows?
