Axeia Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Okay I feel dumb for asking, but how do I go about making an hourly cronjob to execute a page? from what I can tell so far is that I've two choices, either use PHP CLI or another app(wget/lynx) to actually make a page request. I'd prefer to use PHP CLI as it doesn't require any additional software and keeps things a bit more portable (although I've found a windows version of both lynx and wget). My attempts have been: crontab -e 0 * * * * /user/bin/php /srv/www/htdocs/app/file.php crontab -e 0 * * * * wget 127.0.0.1/app/file.php Both apparently having the wrong syntax, so how do I get one of these working (preferably the first).

Axeia Posted May 4, 2009 Author Share Posted May 4, 2009 For the love of.. I knew it was something simple, crontab -e ENTER 0 * * * * /user/bin/php /srv/www/htdocs/app/file.php and it seems to be fine. Guess I'll need a hour to ensure myself of that.
