RE: [PHP] Crontab PHP Script
Just some closure on my crontab question: 1 - Since my linux box has Plesk 7 (PSA) and it already had php installed on it I guess php is installed in the /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/php directory. Pretty sure atleast since the below crontab command is now executing my script: /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/php /home/httpd/vhosts/tgwedding.com/httpdocs/tgwedding/crontab.php I believe traditionally php is installed in /usr/local/bin/php but I could be wrong...this is what was throwing me off. 2 - Tim, you were right, all stars will make the crontab run every minute on my linux box -Original Message- From: Tim Traver [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, June 27, 2004 1:17 AM To: Ryan Schefke; Php-General-Help; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Crontab PHP Script Not sure if this is different in linux, but usually the first parameter is the minutes, and if you had 01 in it, that means that it would do it once an hour (i.e. 12:01, 1:01, 2:01, etc...

[PHP] Crontab PHP Script

You need to add #!/usr/bin/php At the start of your script so it knows how to run it. You will also need to set the permission bits to allow execution chmod 700 Change the path to where you have the cli version of php on your system. -- Scot L.
