How to setup Dolphin cron job?

Hi,

I just installed Dolphin, the social networking script from Boonex and setup cron job as described by Dolphin during installation. This is my cron job command:

cd /home/webmaster/public_html/XXXXXXXXXXX.COM/periodic; /usr/local/bin/php -q cron.php

Code (markup):

This job is being run every minute and I am getting the following email every time it runs:

I want to know if the job is running fine and this is just a warning message? I mean if you have setup Dolphin before, can you tell me if I setup the cron job correctly!?

Thanks

 

First: I suggest changing this:

cd /home/webmaster/public_html/XXXXXXXXXXX.COM/periodic; /usr/local/bin/php -q cron.php

Code (markup):

to this:

 /usr/local/bin/php -q /home/webmaster/public_html/XXXXXXXXXXX.COM/periodic/cron.php

Code (markup):

Do you know what the cron is supposed to do? Once the cron is set, you should be able to tell if it is working, by checking to see if it is doing what it's supposed to be doing.

If you are still seeing that error afterward, try addressing the error that's there.

 

Yes but in this case I don't know what this cron will do because this command was given to me by Dolphin CMS and it doesn't explain what it does. Anyway I changed the way like you said and getting the exact same email which means my previous command was also correct and I need to fix the warnings that I am getting in email!!?!

 

cd /home/webmaster/public_html/XXXXXXXXXXX.COM/periodic; /usr/local/bin/php -q cron.php

this will work the same way as the second one.

 

And for dolphin it will through error if register global is set ON

 

So that means cron is working fine and I just need to set register_globals and allow_url_include to OFF!?

 

Yes. Try that.

 

Hi,
If you don't know anything about cron, I would suggest to contact the support of your hosting provider they will help you and you will be good to go in 5 minutes Fastest way!

 

I did and it didn't help.
