Cron / WGet


My crontab uses Wget to access a PHP file. It works just fine; however, the only problem is that each time the crontab is run it creates a file in the root of my site called filename.php.10XX

filename is the name of the file that Wget runs and 10xx is just the number of times the tab has been run.

How can I prevent these files from being created?

Wget - Apache
I've just did a 'wget' on a file that's quiet large (2.3GB), and now I'm wanting to serve the file through one of my accounts. The ownership and permissions of the file have already been changed to reflect the specific account; however, when I browse to the file through the web it will not pick up the filesize nor allow me to download the file stating 403 - Forbidden Access.

Is there some setting that needs to be changed to allow users to download a file of this size? or am I missing a permission command?

DDoS Attack By Wget
i have been under DDoS attacks, and what it does is it will have different servers wget

a certain file so it's all pretty much with HTTP.

for example: i had 10000 wget site.com/file.rar from ip x.x.x.x

and then same wget from ip y.y.y.y.

now question is how could i block this?

is it a way on apache2 to limit Downloads per IP (example 1 gb /IP)?

Command For Tranferring Files Through Wget
I am trying to move over a client from Verio's hosting to my VPS. The verio control panel looks very amateurish and there is no option to do a full account backup. There is no SSH either.

I tried wget -r ftp://user:pass@hostname/directory/* which was mentioned in another WHT thread, but after it gets connected, it shows the following and stops there:

Quote:

Logging in as accountname ... Logged in!
==> SYST ... done. ==> PWD ... done.
==> TYPE I ... done. ==> CWD /directoryname ... done.
==> PASV ...

Can anyone suggest a command that will work? There is only about 35 MB of files there, but I spent hours yesterday trying to download through FTP.

Per Second Cron Jobs?
Hey everyone, my friend's dad is looking for a web host that will allow his cron jobs to run every second. Most hosts apparently dont allow cron jobs faster than 5 seconds apart.

How often a host can run cron jobs isn't really advertised on their sites so I'm having a bit of trouble finding a host. I've resorted to just sending emails to sales addresses asking about it.

Does anyone know how I can find a host like this?

Simply wondering, does cron timeout?

I have heard mixed reports and can't find any good info. Personally i've run a cronjob for up to 6 minutes, but as my best method was sending myself emails through php, its not exactly a highly accurate testing method.

On the same note, what would happen if one cronjob is running a php script for over 10 minutes, then another cron job starts on the same script, before the first one has finished?

Remote Cron
I've just noticed that many people may have a free remote cron facility without realising it.

If you have any domains registered with Godaddy, you get free web space that includes a cron facility. It only runs every half hour, but you could set six jobs at 5 min intervals to get an effective 5-minute poll, which is good enough for many purposes. You could use it to check uptime on another site, for example. Has anyone tried this?

Cron Quit Working...
I have a dedicated CentOS 4.5 Server. However, as you can probably guess I am new to linux and managing a server...

Anyway, beginning of this month my crons quit working, I still receive emails as if they are ran but I can't get the scripts to actually execute.

I have not touched the crontabs or anything prior to them not working, they simply quit working... I did not notice immediatly they did not work, I am guessing that it was around the time of which I rebuilt apache to a new version of PHP. Today I tried changing them to "php path/to/script.php" and I also tried "path/to/php /path/to/script.php", neither worked.

Any ideas or suggestions as to how I can fix this?

Can Cron (back Ups)
I want to set up a cron job to make daily back-ups of my database, but by turning my site off first.

This is how I envisage it to work:
1: rename '.htacess' (in public_html folder for the site) to .htaccess-open
2: rename '.htaccess-closed' to .htaccess
// this closes the site down so no-one can write/access the db (they are basically shown a 'site down for maintenance' page - I already have the code for this)

3: mysqldump --opt (DB_NAME) -u (DB_USERNAME) -p(DB_PASSWORD) > /path/to/dbbackup-$(date +%m%d%Y).sql
// this backs up the database

4: wait for 3 to finish
5: rename '.htaccess' to .htaccess-closed
6: rename '.htacess-open' to .htaccess
// this opens the site back upIs this easy enough to do? Anyone got any tips/pointers?

How Do I Change The Cron Schedule
We have a Cron executed program which runs at certain times of the day.
I need to changes these times.

How do I do this?

To be exact the program that is executed is called daily_charges.jsp

And I have looked under
etc/cron.daily
and I see no call to this program

FYI looking under etc/crontab I see this:

SHELL=/bin/bash
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
MAILTO=root
HOME=/

# run-parts
01 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.hourly
02 4 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily
22 4 * * 0 root run-parts /etc/cron.weekly
42 4 1 * * root run-parts /etc/cron.monthly

which obviously is the default Linux included Crontab file so this file cannot be the one that runs the daily crons.

how can I find where is the Cron code that daily runs the program:
daily_charges.jsp

Cron Jobs Not Running
I have a machine, that for some reason stopped running it's cron jobs for some reason, and I can figure out how to get them working again.

My /etc/crontab file is as follows.

SHELL=/bin/bash

MAILTO=root
HOME=/

# run-parts
01 * * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.hourly
02 4 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily
22 4 * * 0 root run-parts /etc/cron.weekly
42 4 1 * * root run-parts /etc/cron.monthly
Here are the contents of a sample user cron file.

MAILTO="USER"
10 4 * * * php -q -f /home/USER/public_html/tools/updtransfers.php /home/USER/public_html >/dev/null 2>&1
10 5 * * * php -q -f /home/USER/public_html/tools/updateexp.php /home/USER/public_html >/dev/null 2>&1
10 5 * * * php -q -f /home/USER/public_html/tools/invoice_cron.php /home/USER/public_html >/dev/null 2>&1
and another

*/5 * * * * /usr/local/bin/php -c /home/USER/php.ini /home/USER/public_html/poller.php > /dev/null 2>&1
I've checked my logs, and I can find no errors anywhere. When I run the commands manually via SSH, they work perfectly, they simply are not being run automatically the way they are supposed to be.

I have checked, and the crond service is running. I have tried restarting it, but it seams to have no affect. I really have no idea what the issue is. The only thing I seam to have found at one point, was the possibility that the files within the /etc/cron.d directory might be CHMOD'ed wrong, but I haven't found anything to confirm this either way.

How Can I Backup CPanel With Cron
I just went through a week of nightmares, because my host lost hard drives and stuff.. lost my data, etc.. what ever..

I want to work out how I can cron cPanel backups. I did a search online for a cPanel backup manager, but I didn't have much luck.

Or, maybe there's some other way to get regular backups?

I don't really need to backup my whole sites. I keep my files locally, but of course I don't have the databases locally -- or the email records.

All I "really" need is the database SQL files, so that I can rebuild my forums if need be, and also the email setup files -- because I have over 50 domains and I have emails set up on all of them.

I want to have them emailed to myself.

There's an option in cPanel too, which allows me to "generate/download a full backup".. well, how do I "restore" the backup? ie: I know how to backup and restore the home directory, databases and email stuff (there's 3 options in cPanel), but there doesn't seem to be anywhere to restore the full backup.

Anyway, can anyone give me advice on how to keep backups of my cPanel accounts? I don't trust hosts anymore. They say they back stuff up, but they never to.
