MMDE Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 How is it supposed to tell you if the license is going to expire in a month? I mean how is it going to communicate this message with you or your company? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I would assume they'd do it the easy way and just record the license information in their own db, and update it when they get a new license. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batwimp Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 And then send out an email when the license is about to expire. What code have you written so far? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMDE Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 And then send out an email when the license is about to expire. What code have you written so far? PHP is mainly used to run server side scripts when a page is requested. Are you sure PHP is what you want to use for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batwimp Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Sounds like something you could do with google calendar or a similar application. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haku Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 heh. What you will want to do is set up a script that pulls all the records out of the database that will expire within one month of today. Check to see if a notification mail has already been sent (you will need to add a new column to your database to mark this). If it hasn't, then send out the required emails, and mark that the notifications have been sent. Then, set up a cron tab to execute your script every day at a certain time. Cron tabs run on the server at set intervals, without any interaction from a user. Setting the marker I mentioned in the first part will mean that if any mails don't get sent for some reason, they will get picked up on a future cron run. Without that, if you only grabbed the records that were to expire in a month, and your script failed for some reason, the notifications that were not sent would never be sent.
