cronjobs doesn"t read siteaceess / connect to db

Sunday 23 April 2006 4:59:16 am

hi all,

i have been trying to use the runcronjobs.php script, but unfortunately it does work and does not connect to the database. ("Error initializing script: database error: No database handler was found for ' '.)

i have tried to manually plant the siteaccess and even the DB username/password in \kernel\classes\ezscript.php and \lib\ezdb\classes\ezdb.php files, but no luck.

i have tried the folloing command lines (through crontab) but no luck
/usr/local/bin/php -d include_path=.:/home/noamse/public_html/site /home/noamse/public_html/site/runcronjobs.php

/usr/local/bin/php -d include_path=.:/home/noamse/public_html/site /home/noamse/public_html/site/runcronjobs.php -s backoffice

and even
/usr/local/bin/php -d include_path=.:/home/noamse/public_html/site /home/noamse/public_html/site/runcronjobs.php -sbackoffice

and this is the output i keep getting:

Siteaccess backoffice does not exist, using default siteaccess

help would be highly appreciated

thanks,

Make sure that you have correct version of PHP installed in your system, run

php -v

You need PHP 4.4.x (cli) or higher from 4 line for eZ publish 3.7, or 4.3.x for 3.6 and lower.

cron job script should be run from your eZ publish root directory:

$ cd ez_publish_path
$ php runcronjobs.php

You can type sequence of commands in crontab, first changedir to ezpublish_root, then execute the script e.g:

# This must be set to the directory where eZ publish is installed.
EZPUBLISHROOT=/home/noamse/public_html/site
 
# Location of the PHP Command Line Interface binary.
PHP=/usr/local/bin/php
 
# Executes the runcronjobs.php script every 15th minute.
0,15,30,45 * * * * cd $EZPUBLISHROOT; $PHP -C runcronjobs.php -q 2>&1

or just

0,15,30,45 * * * * cd /home/noamse/public_html/site; /usr/local/bin/php -C runcronjobs.php -q 2>&1
