Cronjob Emulator #150

Open Drachenkaetzchen opened 12 years ago

Sometimes people can't run cronjobs (Windows users or people on strange hosting providers). We need to implement a cronjob emulator.

Wordpress does this. They run an asynchronous call on every page request, to a script (wp-cron.php) that checks whether any jobs are due. http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.5.1/wp-includes/cron.php#L0 http://wp.tutsplus.com/articles/insights-into-wp-cron-an-introduction-to-scheduling-tasks-in-wordpress/

Hi Felicitus,

I am new to PartKeepr, but like the simple and effective tool! I downloaded the VM image and loaded it in VirtualBox in windows but still see the cronjob problem after login the frontend. Do I need to do something inside the OS (Debian) in order to make it working?

Two more questions: Does anyone succeeded in installing PartKeepr in Windows IIS? How do I access the MySQL database with the installation using the VM image?

Appreciated, Shane
