Need To Move Website Due To Cron Job Frequency


I have a website that runs 17 cron jobs...4 every minute...most every 5 minutes...the remaining few every hour or so. Can anyone please refer me to a host that allows this? The best I've found thus far is host for web but they require every five minutes.

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

/home/php/some-file.php?a=1

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."

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

Content-type: text/html

No input file specified.

...and...

After Move Website Are Not Accesible From All ISP
I have a weird problem which never occured till now, and I moved websites about 3 times and it never did so bad.

I moved the websites on a new server on sunday, the new server has the primary nameservers ns3.xtremewd.com and ns4.xtremewd.com . The old one has ns1 and ns2 .

all my websites uses the nameservers ns1.sibiul.net and ns2.sibiul.net on monday morning I changed IP (from godaddy control panel) for ns1 and ns2 to point to the new server

Bouth servers are online and ware online all the time but very weird thing happents. on dnsreport I saw a change on my IP they changed it to new ones .. than yesterday night I saw again the old ones , and I refreshed the page multiple times. On backup.dnsreport.com it shows new IP's.

on dnsstuff I could not ping my websites

Sorry, I could not determine the IP for sibiul.ro (error 11004).

on backup.dnsstuff it worked with new IP's.

On my ISP this one is working but others dont and all have the same nameservers. I don;t understand why some websites work and others dont. For exemple on my primary ISP (i have 2 conections) hidrosib.ro is not working .. on other ISP it is.

I don;t understand why dnsstuf canot ping my sites and backup can.

Server Down Due To High Bandwith
I have a dedicated server with godaddy. Yesterday it went down. I sent a trouble ticket to their support. In 4 hours I got reply saying that everything is fine and server is just experiencing high bandwith. I was able to login to control panel (which is available through different IP address, and I have noticed that my usual 8 gigs a day bandwidth increased to 160 a day for yesterday. I cannot SSH to my server. I cannot access my website via http. I cannot FTP to my server. I cannot do anything. I have submitted another ticket and waiting fro reply.

Any suggestions? Is this an attack? (I feel it is, but not sure) What kind of attack can bring server down, if I have CISCO firewall installed? I am little upset with godaddy, because so far, my server has been down for over a day. Any providers out there, who are more rapid in terms of helping their customers? FYI: I pay them $150 a month.

The server is up and running, so the server is not an issue. I therefore suspect there must be a DNS problem somewhere.

The common denominator among those that are having the problem is that they are using connections with high latency (e.g. Satellite). Could high latency be the problem? If yes, is there anything I can do so my users will stop having this problem?

VPS Crashing Due To Running Out Of Memory
I run a drupal site on a VPS running Lighttpd with 128MB ram and 15GB disk space. Every so often the server crashes and I have no access to even reboot via the shell, I have to get my host to reboot the VPS. They say its most likely due to the server running out of memory. I would have no more than 5 users plus 5 guests online at the same time. So my question is this...

How can I find out exactly what is consuming the memory and causing the server to crash? I have looked at drupal logs and the server logs, but I'm no wiser as to whats causing it. What should I be looking for and what can I do to try and solve this?
