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

Quoting Shai Gluskin <shai@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. Earnie -- http://for-my-kids.com/ -- http://give-me-an-offer.com/
