I have tried to set up a cron job using the ISPConfig3 panel. Nothing happened. Setting it up with crontab -e worked flawlessly. I guess I'm not doing it right. The line in crontab -e is: */2 * * * * /usr/bin/wget -O - -q -t 1 http://www.site3.com/dir/cron.php In ISPConfig3 I put */2 for minute et cetera and in the Command field I put: /usr/bin/wget -O - -q -t 1 http://www.site3.com/dir/cron.php What could I be doing wrong?
The cronjobs in ispconfig are jailed. You should check if the wget binary is also available in the jail.
Till, your answer raises more questions. I followed the steps for installing Lenny + ISPConfig3, so if this kind of setup allows the use of wget, the answer is yes. I don't know that, I'm not that Linux savvy. So what I like to know now is: 1. Is wget jailed with the perfect set-up of Lenny + ISPConfig3 2. How can I check for myself whether wget is jailed? 3. If wget is jailed, what else can I use? Curl of sh? Thanx in advance for your answers.
