title: Why does crontab -e not work on Raspberry Pi 3b
body: <p>I am struggling since a couple of days to make a python script run whenever the pi reboots using crontab. I have used quiet a number of solutions but the job doesn't run at reboot.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried </p>
  
  <pre><code>@reboot python3 /home/pi/Desktop/my_test.py. 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have also tried a few other fixes like giving full path of python, delaying the start of the file but nothing seems to work. Is there a bug or am I missing something?</p>
  
  <p>Please help me out guys</p>
