I have created a cron job from cpanel. The command is
php /home/userdir/www/index.php Messages test
The controller Messages and the method test just inserts a record in a temporary table.
When I run the following from command prompt on my laptop running windows, it runs fine.
php c:/wamp/www/project/index.php Messages test
This works perfectly.
However, on the hosted server running Linux, I get a mail from the server which has the html for the home page. It does not even go to the Messages->test method.
Please help.
Use:
php index.php welcome show
as command in your crontab. E.g.:
0 * * * * php /home/userdir/www/index.php Messages test
or
0 * * * * /usr/local/bin/php /home/userdir/www/index.php Messages test
or
0 * * * * wget http://domain.com/Messages/test
