kaushikisalive Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Hi, I am using MYSQL as my database and PHP as my programming language.I wanted to run a cron job which would run until the current system date matches the "deadline(date)" column in my database table called "PROJECT".Once the dates are same an update query has to run which would change the status(field of project table) from "open" to "close". I am not really sure if cron jobs are the best way or I could use triggers or may be something else.Also I am using Apache as my web server and my OS is windows vista. Also which is the best way to do it? PHP scheduler or cron jobs or any other method? can anybody enlighten me?
