Alessandro Cipriani	Wednesday 17 December 2003 12:36:41 am hi all i'm tryin' to automatic run the ezpublish.cron script in order to flush the pending list. i've seen that there is a file named ezpublish.cron that seems to be able to execute runcronjob.php every 15 minutes. i modified the file with the path of php and so on but it seems to not work. the content is: # This must be set to the directory where eZ publish is installed. EZPUBLISHROOT=c:\programmi\ezpublish\ezpublish # Location of the PHP Command Line Interface binary. PHP=c:\programmi\ezpublish\php\php # Executes the runcronjobs.php script every 15th minute. 0,15,30,45 * * * * cd $EZPUBLISHROOT; $PHP -C runcronjobs.php -q 2>&1 any hint?? thanx
Balazs Halasy	Wednesday 17 December 2003 1:48:59 am Hi, It seems that you're running Windows, right? Well, as far as I'm concerned, Microsoft Windows does not have a cron daemon/service. Cron is a UNIX thing that is used to run various scripts/programs periodically. If you want to run the runcronjobs.php script at specific times on Windows, I suggest that you use some kind of scheduling system. Perhaps you can use the "Windows Scheduler" solution. You need to actually execute the cronjobs script like this: "php -C runcronjobs.php" Balazs
