PHP as a Cron CentOS/Fedora

When adding a PHP script as a cron you need to ensure that you include the full PHP directory, simply running the following will not allow the script to run:

30 6 * * * php -q public_html/clients/scripts/mycron.php

Using the following will allow the PHP script to be used within a cron process:

30 6 * * * /usr/local/bin/php -q /home/username/public_html/clients/admin/mycron.php

Note how we need to utilise the full directory structure to ensure both the PHP process is called correctly and has the full directory of your PHP script.

  • RackSRV hosts all of the game servers for our forthcoming title Heroes of Newerth in the UK, we are currently at 25+ boxes hosted here and the service and support is outstanding. I'm not sure these people ever sleep as the watching of the boxes never ends. Keep up the good work!
