I'm having problems using cron to run a encrypted php file. The file is encrypted using Source Guardian v8.0 and i can run it successfully when i call th script directly from the browser. The frequency is to run every 24 hours and i'm testing by setting this to every 5 minutes so i can test it quickly. The frequency works ok and im getting the emails to the email address i specify in the job.
my emails contain this:
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.3.26
Content-type: text/html
but the resultant script(which updates a db table) is not running.
My web host (shared hosting) advised i use:
php -c /home/myUserName/public_html/path/to/my/daily/repeated/script.php
Source Guardian Support suggest full paths and specifying the php.ini path, thus:
/usr/local/bin/php -c /usr/lib/php.ini -f /home/myUserName/public_html/path/to/my/daily/repeated/script.php
Previously i was using:
php /home/myUserName/public_html/path/to/my/daily/repeated/script.php
Nothing seems to run this script!! with/without switches; full paths or not ... any suggestions appreciated
