Execute script at crontab

Question

General info:

SO:

Ubuntu 18.04

Script folder:

/home/Emby/Anime/canon_vids

Serie folder:

/home/Emby/Anime/Goblin Slayer

I normally execute the script at folder like this:

./canon_vids [folder]

./canon_vids Goblin\ Slayer/

Problem:

I want to execute the script with crontab every 10 minutes as root.

I tried adding like this but isnt working.

*/10 * * * * root sh /home/Emby/Anime/canon_vids /home/Emby/Anime/Goblin\ Slayer/

Added how, where? What flavor / version of Unix or Linux are you using? The file format may be slightly different (in particular whether the user field should be present or not) — steeldriver, Feb 15 '19 at 23:55

*/10 * * * * /home/Emby/Anime/canon_vids /home/Emby/Anime/Goblin\ Slayer/ > /dev/null 2>&1
