Re: [cobalt-users] PHP and crontab

Dan,

I know this might sound trivial to you, but here's what I'd check.

a) Does the script execute from the command line or when being called
directly using a browser?

If 'yes', then I have no idea.  I have used the lynx -dump method in the
past with success.

If 'no':

b) Make sure the #! line in script.cgi is correct.

c) Does the script call any other external scripts or redirect to another
script?

It sounds like a simple misconfiguration problem within your script, but
then again I doubt that since you hardly qualify for the 'new user' status.

Just throwing ideas your way.  It's usually the simplest problems that trip
up the 'long time' users.

Hmm, after inspecting your post a bit more closely, I noticed the following:

> 0 0 * * * * curl http://www.yoursite.com/myscript.php3
> 0 0 * * * * lynx -dump http://www.yoursite.com/myscript.php3

You have a total of 6 date/time parameters on your crontab lines above.
There should only be 5 if I'm not mistaken:

0 0 * * * curl http://www.yoursite.com/myscript.php3
0 0 * * * lynx -dump http://www.yoursite.com/myscript.php3

Maybe?
