Cron Jobs (broken) - craig@rtech.co.nz - 02-06-2016
Hey guys,
I need to setup a cronjob like :
my_domain_name/index.php?option=com_easysocial&cron=true&phrase=nottellingyou
Comes up with script not found however :
my_domain_name/index.php
Creates the cronjob fine.
So Im guessing Sentora, thinking it's a smart cookie looks for the file name which doesn't exist beyond index.php and spits the dummy. Any ideas on how to fix?

you can create a file mycron.php that curl the URL and setup the cron to run that file.

Can you post an example on that linked page above? Will be nice to have more examples

Create a file mycron.php:
Code:
<?php
// create curl resource
$ch = curl_init();
$myurl="my_domain_name/index.php?option=com_easysocial&cron=true&phrase=nottellingyou";
// set url
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $myurl);
//return the transfer as a string
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
// $output contains the output string
$output = curl_exec($ch);
// close curl resource to free up system resources
curl_close($ch);
?>http://php.net/manual/en/curl.examples.php
Then create a cron in sentora to run mycron.php.
That would do the trick.

crontab -e
This is mine:
*/10 * * * * lynx -source "http://www.my_domain/index.php?option=com_community&task=cron" > /dev/null
Every 10 min it checking jomsocial for sending email or transcode.
If you dont have lynx, just install it with apt-get install lynx
RE: Cron Jobs (broken) - Me.B - 02-09-2016
Why installing lynx?? You already have Wget that can do it or curl.
