[support] Cron Unable to Access Database

[Shai Gluskin]

Fellow Drupallers,

Cron isn't working.

This is the job I have set up:

17 * * * *  /usr/bin/php -q /home/<account_name>/public_html/cron.php

(account_name is replaced with the actual account name.)

I'm using cpanel x3 advanced pane set-up.

At 17 minutes after every hour I get the automated e-mail cron report
telling me that the script was unable to access the database.

When I go to: /admin/logs/status, not surprisingly, cron has not been run.

When I navigate via a browser to: example.com/cron.php cron runs normally
and is reported as such in /admin/logs/status.

Other cron jobs in different accounts (also Drupal installations) on the
same server are working fine.

I'm running Drupal 5.7.

Thanks for the help.
