Cron

[Timski]

I have set up a cron job, but it doesn't seem to work. Can someone advise if this is the correct path:

usr/bin/php /home/mydomain/public_html/folder/subfolder/new_cron.php>/dev/null

Thanks
Tim

It may be that you are simply missing a "/" at the front of "usr". See also http://forum.hostgator.com/viewtopic.php?t=328

Thanks for that. I modified the command as you suggested and will see what happens.

Cheers!

I'm not sure on this... but could that space after php or that > after the new_cron.php be messing it up?

I am receiving messages relating to the CRON jobs after amending as my learned colleagues suggested, but I now get the following message as well.

Failed loading /usr/local/Zend/lib/ZendOptimizer.so: /usr/local/Zend/lib/ZendOptimizer.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Any ideas as to what it means or how to stop it???

Cheers!

This looks a linkage problem in the binary version of PHP. I would e-mail support@hostgator.com.
