Adding "bundle exec" in front of the command makes it more compatible across different systems

When adding this to your crontab, add the rake command to a small script and make sure to add the full path to the rake command (since the path is unknown when executed through cron); eg:
24
<pre>
25
#!/bin/bash
26
cd /usr/local/share/redmine
27 13 Hugues C.
bundle exec /usr/local/bin/rake redmine:send_reminders days=7 RAILS_ENV="production"
