How Do I Change The Cron Schedule
Jul 24, 2009We 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
Per Second Cron Jobs?
Apr 5, 2009Hey 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?

Jan 5, 2008I 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
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
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.

Software To Control Cron Jobs?
May 14, 2008Is there any software which would control cron jobs? I've a problem with cpu load where some customers are running more than enough of them at the same time.
Is there any software which would be able to:
If there are more than x crons running at the same time, put others in queue and execute after there are no more than x-1 are running?
Cron Jobs Not Executing PHP Files
Jun 16, 2008I have a new dedicated server and am trying to set up a cron job via CPanel on on of my accounts (we'll call it "abc" account).
In the Cron job area, where it asks for the command to run, I enter this:
/home/abc/public_html/forum/class/sendnotice.php
But when the job runs, it doesn't seem to be executing the .php file. Instead, I get stuff like this via email:
/home/acb/public_html/forum/class/sendnotice.php: line 1: ?php: No such file or directory
/home/abc/public_html/forum/class/sendnotice.php: line 2: ////////////////////////////: is a directory
/home/abc/public_html/forum/class/sendnotice.php: line 3: //: is a directory
/home/abc/public_html/forum/class/sendnotice.php: line 4: //: is a directory
/home/abc/public_html/forum/class/sendnotice.php: line 5: //: is a directory
/home/abc/public_html/forum/class/sendnotice.php: line 6: //: is a directory
/home/abc/public_html/forum/class/sendnotice.php: line 7: //: is a directory
/home/abc/public_html/forum/class/sendnotice.php: line 8: //: is a directory
/home/abc/public_html/forum/class/sendnotice.php: line 9: //: is a directory
So it is as if the cron job is reading each line of the .php file instead of just running it. Am I doing something wrong in setting up the cron job to run that file or could it be a configuration issue with the new server?

Cron Jobs And Time Zone Differences

Determine What Cron Jobs Are Killing Server And When
Jan 8, 2009We're running on Linux/Apache/MySQL/RoR and have a number of cron jobs that run throughout the day on our server. We've been noticing lately that at certain times of the day the site becomes really slow. When I'm online with my engineers I can mention this to them and they can check and see and say "Oh yeah, it's job XYZ that's spiking the server load."
That's great but much of the time when I notice the sluggishness my developers are offline (we're in different time zones). I'm wondering if there's a fairly easy way to track this when they're not online so we can say "Yup, last night at 10 PM your time when you noticed that it was job ABC." There has to be something that allows you to do this right?
Variable Filenames By Date In Cron Jobs
Mar 12, 2008How do you insert variables in cron jobs? e.g. the current date.
Let's say I want to back up a file and append the date to it.
0 0 * * * cp /some/file.txt /some/outputfile_[DATE].txt >/dev/null
(note that I'm not sure the cp will actually work like that, it's just an example)
Where outputfile_[DATE].txt has the date in it.
Are there variables cron can use for date, hour, minute, etc.?

How To Cron On Windows Server?
May 3, 2007I truly love the 'cron' feature on Linux servers. This way I can schedule php scripts to do repetitive tasks on my website, but I plan to develop a asp.net website.
Is this kind of scheduling scripts possible on Windows servers? Else how do I perform repetitive automatic tasks? It would be a shared hosting.

Backups Via WHM - Setting The Schedule Specifically
Apr 6, 2009We have backups running via WHM to a FTP server - where I see we can set daily, weekly, monthly - but can we specify what time during the day the backups are being done so it won't interfere with other heavy server load tasks?
Looking at the emails I get when the backup is complete, it seems like it's doing it at all sorts of random times.
way to change the priority at which the backup is being run?
