Crontab won't run.
So I got flexget together with Transmission, to download series etc itself. It used to work, but lately I have to execute the job myself, which is really annoying. I want everything to run automatical...

Did you reload cron after doing the modification ? ( /etc/init.d/cron restart ) Cron checks updates on config files only on start I think, at least I've been taught to restart with each modification.
You can also paste your file to the /etc/cron.hourly or /etc/cron.daily if you are not in need for a special timer.
PS : you cron will execute "flexget" not "flexget execute" is any different for this command ?
When testing I set on minute timer and make sure the script has some kind of output, if it works I change the timer and the output (if necessary). Maybe there is a better way to do it though.
