[support] My Week for Cron Problems -- this time "failure to open

[Earnie Boyd]

Quoting Shai Gluskin <shai at content2zero.com>:

> 15 * * * * curl --silent --compressed http://example.com/cron.php >
> /dev/null 2>&1
>

This is an http request and is a different environment than

> 15 * * * * /usr/bin/php -q /home/<account_name>/public_html/cron.php
>
and
> 15 * * * * /usr/local/bin/php -q /home/<account_name>/public_html/cron.php
>

Cron.php was designed to execute in the http request environment and 
wasn't designed to work in the shell environment.
