You must use this structure for Crontab:

* * * * * user-name command to be executed

By the way, first, you should rename myscript to myscript.sh and run it.

For example:

17 * * * * root bash /tmp/myscript.sh

  • I didn't downvote, but note that there's no need to rename `myscript` since extensions are irrelevant. You can even do `bash myscript.exe` as long as `myscript.exe` contains valid bash. – tdy Oct 10 '21 at 07:57
  • Yeah, i do like this and cron work in log Oct 10 10:00:01 SERV_NAME CROND[14025]: (user) CMD (user echo " " >> /tmp/myscript_result.txt) But the file has not been edited – fresco357 Oct 10 '21 at 08:16
