使用 CPanel 在 cron 作业中运行 PHP 文件

Question

I am just trying to run a PHP script using a cron job within CPanel - is this the correct syntax:

/usr/bin/php -q /home/username/public_html/cron/cron.php >/dev/null

I am not getting any email notifications stating a cron has been completed, do I need to do anything specific with the PHP file?

Answer 1

I used this command to activate cron job for this.

/usr/bin/php -q /home/username/public_html/yourfilename.php

on godaddy server, and its working fine.

Answer 2

In crontab system :

• /usr/bin/php is php binary path (different in some systems ex: freebsd /usr/local/bin/php , linux: /usr/bin/php )
• /home/username/public_html/cron/cron.php should be your php script path
• /dev/null should be cron output , ex: /home/username/stdoutx.txt

So you can monitor your cron by viewing cron output /home/username/stdoutx.txt

Answer 3

>/dev/null stops cron from sending mails.

actually to my mind it's better to make php script itself to care about it's logging rather than just outputting something to cron

Answer 4

This is the easiest way:

php -f /home/your_username/public_html/script.php

And if you want to log the script output to a file, add this to the end of the command:

>> /home/your_username/logs/someFile.txt 2>&1

Answer 5

这是方法：

/usr/bin/php -q /home/username/public_html/yourfilename.php >/dev/null

Answer 6

这条 cron 线在使用 cpanel 的 hostgator VPS 上为我工作。

/usr/bin/php -q /home/username/public_html/scriptname.php

Answer 7

I've had problems using /usr/bin/php on CPanel as it is compiled as a "cgi-fcgi" binary and not "cli". Try using /usr/local/bin/php or, as it is first in the path anyway, just use 'php' instead:

php /path/to/script.php

If you want to run the script as an executable, give it +x perms and use the following as the first line of the script:

#!/usr/bin/env php

Answer 8

I hope your problem is with path & php binary as well. If you have fixed the path as per older answers, please use php-cli instead of php command while running cron job.

It may be possible php_sapi_name() is not returning cli . Its returning something else like cgi-fcgi etc.

/usr/bin/php-cli -q /home/username/public_html/cron/cron.php >/dev/null

I hope it will help.

Answer 9

This works fine and also sends email:

/usr/bin/php /home/xxYourUserNamexx/public_html/xxYourFolderxx/xxcronfile.php

The following two commands also work fine but do not send email:

/usr/bin/php -f /home/Same As Above

php -f /home/Same As Above

Answer 10

专家推荐。

/usr/local/bin/php /home/username/public_html/path/to/cron/script

Answer 11

其实很简单，

php -q /home/username/public_html/cron/cron.php

Answer 12

For domain specific Multi PHP Cron Job , do like this,

/usr/local/bin/ea-php56 /home/username/domain_path/path/to/cron/script

In the above example, replace “ea-php56” with the PHP version assigned to the domain you wish to use.

Hope this helps someone.

在 Hostgator CPANEL 上，这对我有用：

php /home/here_your_user_name/public_html/cronJob.php
