I think drush scripts are your best bet. CLI PHP is not not subject to timeout. On Thu, Jul 15, 2010 at 5:01 AM, Sven Decabooter <sdecabooter@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi, I'm reading contradicting posts about running Batch API processes on cron. This is for Drupal 6 BTW. I have tried implementing a batch functionality that should be run on cron, but it doesn't seem to process the work that needs to be done. I assume this is because running the cron through a commandline command doesn't allow for javascript... So my questions: - Have I implemented Batch API incorrectly, and should it normally work also on cron? - What is the best way to run a process that would normally trigger a php script timeout? Can I use the Queue module for that? I'm sure plenty of people have already tried doing this, so I'm not sure why I can find little consistent information about it. Thanks for your feedback. Sven
