    Assuming you copied that directly and completely, you're missing a forward slash at the start.

    You may also need to provide the php CLI app name at the start.

    Run it from the web so you get the paths correctly...

    When you run from cron it is ran from root directory (unless configured otherwise), so your includes in the files are all completely100% wrong.

    Thats why I use wget or lynx
