iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 15, 2009 If you continue having problems in your Cpanel with cron, I'd suggest another route. Cron syntax is just plain painful to understand and get right. Not to mention dealing with the paths, errors, and email configuration for cron notifications. There are really great online cron replacement services out there that allow you to run free cron jobs. If you're looking to cron job PHP scripts, the easy and reliable way to do it is through Cronless.Com. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
