Javier Magán	Wednesday 28 July 2010 12:33:46 pm Hello. Is it possible to pass the prarameters to the runcronjobs.php script as ...mysite.com/runcronjobs.php?parameter1=xx&parameter2=yy Aparently, my ISP only suports this format for configuring cronjobs (no ssh access). If posible, how should this one be?: php runcronjobs.php -s site_admin sendmail Thanks

Otoh it might be interesting to wrap the runcronjobs script in a properly secured module+view. The problem is timeouts and excessive memory usage... The ezscriptmonitor extension should be the solution for these kind of needs Principal Consultant International Business Member of the Community Project Board
