CRON Job Timing Out
i have had a problem for some time now, regarding my CRON jobs. I am trying to download a large amount of data from ebay (through their API, totally legal and aboveboard) using php, but my CRONjob times out.

I have tried resetting the timeout variable, but then it exceeds the maximum filesize
SO, my question: is there any way to have a script run as a CRON job, and wen it is complete, call another script?

Cron Job Email In DA
I've got limited knowledge in scripting so I've come to the interweb for help. Google hasn't answered any of my queries so the trusty WHT is next.

I'm trying to create a script cron that will email my clients once per month with space and bandwidth useage reminders. I'd prefer not to have to set up crons in each individual account, but rather email all with tokening including |name| |bandwidth| |space| out of the allowed space & bandwidth according to the clients package.

MySQLDUMP Cron Job
setting up a new cron job.

I would like to have MySQLDUMP dump my specified database(s) into a specified folder using date and time stamps in the filename.

I've done some searching on this but haven't really came up with a way to do all of this at once, or if I may need to setup a cron job to rename the file after the dump has completed. I may be going about this all wrong to begin with, I'm just looking for a very simple and reliable way to backup my databases.

I'm testing this on a Shared Web Host account at this time which does have SSH shell access, but I wasn't sure if this makes a difference.

Cron Job And Query String
Is it possible to call a cron job with a query string appended to the file. I have no problem setting up crons in the cron tab..but i'd like the cron to fetch a url that looks something like

is this possible directly through the cron job? I guess an alternative is call some php file that uses curl but i was wondering if there 's a direct way.

Cron Job Not Working Properly
I have a slight problem with a cron job I have setup.

I wanted to save a copy of iptables every hour to a folder, so I created a script... here it is:

Code:
varDate=`date +%y%m%d`
varTime=`date +%H%M`

filename="IPtablesBackup-$varDate-$varTime"
iptables-save -c > /etc/IPtablesBackup/$filename
and called is Backup-Script.sh

Now if I just execute the script will in root ./Backup-Script.sh I get a new file with the correct filename and iptables info is saved ! Great ! So then I thought, how can I setup this automatically every hour.

Which leads me on to my problem. I inputted "crontab -e" added this line

Code:
59 * * * * /etc/IPtablesBackup/Backup-Script.sh
The problem is the script is run, I know because it creates a new file with the correct time and date, however the file is empty?

I have set Backup-Script.sh to 777 and owner and group are both root?

Cron Job Not Working, Restart Services
I'm having a bit of trouble with one cron job that doesn't seem to work.

I have others scripts that run hourly fine. However this one does not.

The script:

restart_monitoring.sh

Code:
#!/bin/bash
service iptables stop
service iptables start
/root/bandwidth_rules.sh
/root/portforward_config.sh
exit
The two scripts at the end just load a lot of iptables rules back in.

The cron job should run hourly (59th minute)

The cron job entry

Code:
59 * * * * /root/restart_monitoring.sh
I have restart crond to enable the new job, still doesn't run.

The job is to restart iptables, thus flushing all rules that I have running, then reloading them. I have figured out the problem to be with the "service iptables stop/start" command, it doesn't seem to like doing this...?

Scheduled Consecutive Shell Commands Or As Cron Job
Is it possible to schedule consecutive shell commands to be run at a given time or every certain period (like every hour)?

This is important for me as I want to schedule to run certain program and then input the following commands afterwards to do and complete the task, all automatically within the specified schedule.

One example would be connecting to an FTP. First you'd need to input the ftp command to run the ftp program, then following that, input another commands consecutively within that session (the ftp program) to do and complete the task.

I'm running KDE on CentOs4 btw.

Is it even possible to do this on cron jobs?

Cron Job That Deletes Backup Files Older Than 5 Days
This is on a RHEL 4 Box.

I want to create a cron job that deletes backup files that are older than 5 days. I have created a shell script (/usr/local/src/runjob.sh) that runs successfully from the SSH command line:

Code:
#pwd
/usr/local/src
#./runjob.sh
Here is the script:

Code:
#!/bin/sh
#

#
find /usr/local/apache/sites/*/BACKUPS/ -maxdepth 1 -atime +5 -iname 'test*.txt' -exec rm {} ;
Script has 777 permissions and is owned by root.

I have the following entry in crontab:

Code:
10 12 * * * /bin/sh /usr/local/src/runjob.sh >/dev/null 2>&1

As shown in the cron log, the job does run, but it does not delete the files. And there are files older than 5 days in the directory that meet the find criteria.

Create A Cron Job To Clear Your /tmp Folder Automatically?
how I can create a cron job that runs every 10minutes or so to clear my /tmp folder on one of my servers?

Reason I ask is, it keeps getting filled up and doesn't delete the fiels in it and stops certain scripts from running.

Also, again, I need step by step instructions, such as:

1) what, where the file is I need to place the cron job in

2) what line of code would I put in that file (what does the cron job line look like for every 10min every day)

3) do I need to restart anything, and if so, what command do I run in shell?

Cron Job - "No Input File Specified."
I'm on paid hosting and accessing the cron jobs through a control panel.

I have a php script that I'd like to run daily.

I've put this script in the folder http://mysite.com/Cron/ .

When I navigate to this file directly in my web-browser it runs perfectly and sends me an e-mail.

When I try to set up a cron tab to execute it, though I get the following error in the cron output...

Quote:

Status: 404
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.4.6
Content-type: text/html

No input file specified.

The command I entered into the control panel was...

Quote:

php [url]

I also tried...

Quote:

php -q [url]

...and...

Quote:

php /Cron/SendMail.php

...those times getting the error...


Quote:

/bin/sh: [url]: No such file or directory

why this might not be working for me?

MySQL Doubt: More DB's & Less Tables || More Tables Less DB's
im planning on designing a webservice, it will have a lot of data, spread in many tables.

The problem is that there will be tables created constantly (around 5 each day..)

All tables/data will be accessed equally, so I dont know how to set up the system, to create multiple databases, and balance the number of tables equally on each database, or create less databases and have a lot of tables on each one.

Which one has more efficiency?

Do Exchange Auto-responders Reply To Auto-responders
I have an address that receives hundreds and hundreds of e-mails a day. It's an address people aren't supposed to use (basically noreply@mydomain.com), but people do. I'd like to stop being the guy that gets these and routes them as appropriate, but we can't just turn it off and cause a hard bounce, because that will bewilder too many people who don't get that replying to noreply@mydomain.com is a bad idea. (Our website sends out notifications to people. A lot of people reply for various strange reasons, and we also get a lot of autoresponders sending us junk.)

I'm a Linux admin, so I'm a bit out of my league -- this needs to be configured on our Exchange box.

What I'd really like is an auto-responder for this address that will tell people that they e-mailed a mailbox that no one uses, and give them directions on how to contact a real person if need be.

However, fully half of the e-mails we receive are people's auto-responders. Is an Exchange auto-responder going to reply to their auto-responder? This will completely bewilder people.

And if this will auto-respond to auto-responders, is there a cleaner solution here? Again, it's got to be Exchange, but I'm a Postfix guy, so I have very little experience here.

Empty Reply From Server
I'm having some problems with my script, i think its not really a script error...

- Script connects to rapidshare to send a file to the user

- Rapidshare allows unlimited parallel connections, so no problem

- Though some of the time (not alot), i get a connection error.

- Connection error is: Empty reply from server

- Strange thing is, i get this when i do a curl connection to rapidshare

- ping, telnet, fsockopen, all is working, but it seems that i don't get a reply from the server

Well, is this a problem on my side or on the rapidshare servers?

Also, is there a problem to fix this?

Server is using:
- curl 7.15.5
- php 5.21
- apache 2.2.3

there's no firewall setup on my site..., also i can't find anything in iptables,...
