I've tried everything, set up the Server bin path, gave permissions to files and videocron.php cron.php and the system does not run the cron.

The only way to see the cron work is if I use the url in the browser:
http://videolegal.org/cron.php

Is the question you need to set the url in cron job cpanel? If yes what command?

[tectonny]

I forgot to put my Server bin path

/usr/local/lib/php

[PHPVibe A.]

If the bin path was not in there, it could not be executed. Glad you've figured it out.

[tectonny]

I put the path, but it still does not run cron.

Would not it be easier confiruga task via cpanel?

[PHPVibe A.]

Sure, you have an simple manager in cpanel

For the crons to work you need to chmod it to 555 or upper (cron.php) and have the read bin path, also shell_exec active.

[tectonny]

Good day, I dedicated use without restriction to shell_exe server role, as it can not work?

Any test I can do to test the ssh command?

[PHPVibe A.]

I'm no ssh expert, i think it's just /bin /path-to-file or simple /path-to-file

[tectonny]

I searched the internet, the command is this:
php -i | grep php.ini

When run this way /usr/local/lib/php.ini received'll put on the site to see if it works.

[PHPVibe A.]

Oh, sorry I got your question wrong.

You can try following command to check where is php

Code Select Expand

which php
whereis php

whereis - locate the binary, source, and manual page files for a command
which - shows the full path of (shell) commands.

[tectonny]

Yes, view the answers:

# which php
/usr/local/bin/php

# whereis php
php: /usr/bin/php /usr/lib/php.ini /usr/local/bin/php /usr/local/lib/php.ini /usr/local/lib/php /usr/local/lib/php.ini,v /usr/local/php

[PHPVibe A.]

Then is the  /usr/local/bin/php

[tectonny]

This is what I've always used, but cron jobs do not work.

Want information on the admin via PM to verify?

[PHPVibe A.]

Do you have any cron jobs in admin?
If so, the file cron.php does it have full execute permissions?
What's the cron_interval in tools -> options api (it does not run all the time, just when the duration is passed).

[tectonny]

See the attached image.
Permissions have been placed according to the documentation.
I've tried 0555 0755

To clarify the last time I worked was calling the url in the browser.

http://videolegal.org/cron.php

[PHPVibe A.]

Run it from cpanel, not sure what the issue is, it works fine for me with shel_exec, but I'm not an hosting expert to tell why it doesn't work for you.

Maybe you can use a cron service called easycron.com to trigger the script to run, it very easy to set up and supports multiple configurations.
