Cannot run in cron

[airoptix]

I can't run it in cronjob.

In command line works fine, but when adding to cron, does nothing, just sending the usage options by mail.

In command line is working just this way: php wfpc.php -w d=1 test/warm.xml

Not working like this: ./wfpc.php -w d=1 test/warm.xml (by this way, the same happens: just the usage option)

The problem is almost certainly that when running the cronjob, your system can't find the correct path to the php executable. To find out the full path to php on your system type which php on the command line. Then put that into your cronjob configuration, such as

• * * * * /usr/bin/php wfpc.php -w -d=1 test/warm.xml

I'm not sure, but if the result of which php is different than /usr/bin/php you might be able to update the first line of the script and not have to put the full path in your cronjob configuration.

That is the full path. /home/username/public_html/wfpc.php

I am sure, problem is not at my side. In putty, it is working fine.

Cronjob is set properly, another PHP file run perfectly with the same settings in same directory.

Are the other php files that work marked as executable with a line like #!/usr/bin/php at the top? Maybe try taking that line out of the script and using the full path to php as I suggested. There's nothing about the script that should prevent it from working inside a cronjob.

Ok. I try this way, and let you know. But the wfpc.php file is found and run, because it's output is sent to me by the server in mail. But the output is just the usage instructions immediately, not going through the sites like in putty. There is not any not found error.

Ok. If I have some time I'll see if I can test on my end in a crontab as well.

[airoptix]

I can try it tomorrow only.

Hi, I just tested this in a crontab and it works fine on my machine. I'm not sure exactly what the problem is, here is what I have in my test case for the crontab

* * * * * /home/nathan/gitRepos/wfpc/wfpc -w -d http://trendy-tees.local/sitemap.xml >> /tmp/wfpc-cron.log

And on my system which php output is /usr/bin/php

[airoptix]

The other php does not have this #!/usr/bin/php at the top. It is the magento's cron.php file. But it also has a cron.sh file, that is related to this cron.php. I'm not too familiar with linux, but I think this .sh file is neccessary to work.

Anyway, I set up the log file also, but the output is the same: only the usage commands.

I am sure the wfpc.php file is being run, but not working. Maybe there is some kind of time limit on cron running, and it cannot run through, that's why it immedately goes to usage options.

I think I give this up.
