I have a python script that runs perfectly on my ubuntu remote server when run via ssh in the terminal window. The script is set to scrape data from an API and write the data to an sql table. However, when i try to run this as a cron job on my plesk control panel, the job seems to take forever to run and gets stuck and doesn't finish running. I need help fixing this bug so the cron job can run on my plesk control panel.

I can find what's wrong with your Python cron job and fix it. All I need to start is SSH access to your Ubuntu server.

We are a group of engineers and web developers. This could be due to environment variables not being passed when the script is run via the cronjob or something else which we can help you diagnose and fix. Experience: We have 10+ years of experience in various programming languages as well as system administration and network engineering.
