crons

[Tonka]

i keep having problems with my crons and i'm not sure how to fix them.

the problems i'm having are that the education days are going into the negative

the gang crime timer is going into the negative

the jobs are not getting paid

EDIT: all my other crons are working, these ones just randomly stop

Re: crons

Have you enabled/added the cron script yet?

If not - there is a ggood tutorial to do it in the FAQ section.

Re: crons

i have the crons working, they just randomly stop working and i'm not sure why

Re: crons

It might be your host, that would be the most likely thing.

If you doubt it is that, try entering your email at the crontabs page(cPanel), and look at the output.

Re: crons

Most off the Free hosts are Crap for Cron Jobs, And did you put what exactly it said in the cron jobs and have you edited any off the cron files?

Re: crons

i don't use a free host i'm on a VPS, and as i said before all my other crons work fine

Re: crons

Please post the actual cron file that is supposed to update the stats you mentioned above.

Re: crons

here are the snippet's that aren't working

 

here is the education days, the education days have been separated from the main cron day file and are working fine

 % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                               Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed

0     0    0     0    0     0      0      0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:--     0
0     0    0     0    0     0      0      0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:--     0

 

here is the actual file for education days

here is the OC timer

$db->query("UPDATE gangs SET gangCHOURS=gangCHOURS-1 WHERE gangCRIME>0");
$q=$db->query("SELECT g.*,oc.* FROM gangs g LEFT JOIN orgcrimes oc ON g.gangCRIME=oc.ocID WHERE g.gangCRIME > 0 AND g.gangCHOURS = 0");

event_add($rm['userid'],"Your Gang's Organised Crime Succeeded. Go [url='oclog.php?ID=$i']here[/url] to view the details.",$c);

else

{
event_add($rm['userid'],"Your Gang's Organised Crime Failed. Go [url='oclog.php?ID=$i']here[/url] to view the details.",$c);
}
}
}

 

Here is the job pay

if(date('G')==17)
{
$db->query("UPDATE users u LEFT JOIN userstats us ON u.userid=us.userid LEFT JOIN jobs j ON j.jID=u.job LEFT JOIN jobranks jr ON u.jobrank=jr.jrID SET u.money=u.money+jr.jrPAY, u.exp=u.exp+(jr.jrPAY/20) 
WHERE u.job > 0 AND u.jobrank > 0");
$db->query("UPDATE userstats us LEFT JOIN users u ON u.userid=us.userid LEFT JOIN jobs j ON j.jID=u.job LEFT JOIN jobranks jr ON u.jobrank=jr.jrID SET us.strength=(us.strength+1)+jr.jrSTRG-1,us.labour=(us.labour+1)+jr.jrLABOURG-1,us.IQ=(us.IQ+1)+jr.jrIQG-1 WHERE u.job > 0 AND u.jobrank > 0");
}
$db->disconnect();

i was thinking of moving the jobpay into a seperate cron file, i'm not sure if that would make a difference
