Hello,
I have php scripts I'm trying to execute routinely using cron.
I'm doing this by modifying the crontab file.
crontab contents:
SHELL=/bin/bash
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
MAILTO=root
HOME=/
# For details see man 4 crontabs
# Example of job definition:
# .---------------- minute (0 - 59)
# | .------------- hour (0 - 23)
# | | .---------- day of month (1 - 31)
# | | | .------- month (1 - 12) OR jan,feb,mar,apr ...
# | | | | .---- day of week (0 - 6) (Sunday=0 or 7) OR sun,mon,tue,wed,thu,fri,sat
# | | | | |

100% sure that php location is correct; 100% sure that cron service is running; 100% sure that the location of my scripts are correct
Also, yes I realize that my first entry is set to run that command every 10 minutes, I did this only for debugging purposes, please pretend its set to run it every hour
Please help *nix experts :D !
Thank you
