First time attempt to run a cron job for a website. I have define the following for web1: /usr/bin/php -q /var/www/clients/client1/web1/web/home/admin/cron.php In the /var/syslog I see this entry at the appointed time: Sep 18 12:30:01 my /USR/SBIN/CRON[14041]: (web1) CMD (/usr/bin/php -q /var/www/clients/client1/web1/web/home/admin/cron.php #webdude.net) But nothing executes. This is an invoicing app but nothing runs. If I log in as root and execute the entry from the commandline as root then it does work. Does web 1 not have enough rights to run this maybe?? Any ideas of where to start looking would be helpful. Thanks!
Check that this is a full con and not jailed con. BTW. The easiest way for such a cro job is to enter just the URL starting with http in the command field.
You mean it will execute if I just type in something like: 30 12 * * * http://my-website/admin/cron.php Do I need wget?
ISPCOnfig creates the wget command on its own, so you can enter just the url http://my-website/admin/cron.php in ispconfig in the command field and ispconfig takes care to create the right wget command and inserts it in the crontab. in ispconfig
