Crons - Solved

[Spudinski]

Please state what you are using to run the crons, or rather, with what do you manage them? eg. cPanel, Webmin, Plesk...

[ashbow97]

cPanel X, All you do it fill in the time and stuff, then type in the curl http://..... bit, but I'm not sure if that' all :S

[Spudinski]

That is all you do.

If the crontabs are randomly disparaging you should contact your host.

[ashbow97]

Oh... yeah but I can't remember the code at the end, is there a way of finding out what it is again? :)

[Spudinski]

It is in your config file. "config.php".

But that would not be the reason it disappears.

[ashbow97]

Thanks for your help btw :) I'll take it up with the host if it happens again :P

That's wierd... I don't have a config.php file... I run on lite just so you know ;)

[Spudinski]

Try the mysql.php file then.

[ashbow97]

Yeah, there's a code in there called 'mykey' but it's only 8 numbers long... I watched a tutorial, and the code is (after the adress) around 20 characters long and icludes letters as well... so I don't think that's the one :S

md5() $mykey from mysql.php, and that's the code.

[Spudinski]

/me needs to make an "How to install MCCodes" tutorial.

Or MCCodes just needs to make a proper installer.

[Dominion]

lite & v2 are already on youtube. The links are on here 100's of times.

[ashbow97]

I know how to install it... I've already done that, I've got the site working. But I looked at my crons... and they're not there :S

I tried running the installer file again, and it doesn't work. I've tried doing this:

curl http://www.bandlegends.elementfx.com/cron_fivemins.php?code=********

* = the 8 numbered code I said about...

It still isn't working :S

[Spudinski]

You need the md5 hash.

[ashbow97]

This is what is in my mysql:

<?php

$c = mysql_connect('localhost', 'mu user', 'my password);

mysql_select_db('my database', $c);

$mykey=********;

?>
