I run a CRON and get the script location via
WGET, I understand the way WGET works and its files generation (one per cron call)
However I was under the impression that -q should stop those files creation. Here is my cron line
1 */3 * * * wget -q "htpp:// etc......" Am I doing it wrong? My cron runs fine and my script is executed as supposed but the root gets loaded with those empty scripts

Write full path to wget, like /usr/bin/wget

Use a trailing ampersand '&' to run wget as a background process. You can use -O to tell wget where to create its output file.
