Re: phpjobscheduler

If your using Mc Code V2..

Your crons will be like for example:..

curl http://url.com/cron_fivemins.php?code=SomeCodeHere

curl http://url.com/cron_minute.php?code=SomeCodeHere

curl http://url.com/cron_hour.php?code=SomeCodeHere

ect

Re: phpjobscheduler

now at kenja did you add the right code to trigger the phpjobscheduler? and you have the "crons" set up properly under phpjobscheduler

Re: phpjobscheduler

Re: phpjobscheduler

phpjobscheduler is not "automatic" at 100%, you should look at the features of it on their site. it goes pretty fine if you have a steady load of users throughout the hours/minutes, though if you have a site with "dead" hours where you have no one on the site, it will simply not run as a normal crontab task (cron jobs)

 

Limiting factor: hits to site per minute/hour/day. If you wish to add a scheduled job per hour your site must receive sufficient traffic within that time period. Each time a page with the relevant PHP code is visited (this can be put onto multiple pages or different sites) the phpJobScheduler will check for any jobs waiting to be run at that time. Therefore, so long as your site receives hits every single hour you can set a schedule to run hourly and you can be sure the task will be fired.

Re: phpjobscheduler

thanks Lithium..is there anyway i can make my crons work on a free host

Re: phpjobscheduler

you have a mod floating around that uses timestamp, it does the job, though as users tend to increase, it is not the best option, or you can use external services like this one http://www.webbasedcron.com/
