未发送Crontab任务和电子邮件附件

Question

I made a PHP script yesterday which send an email with a PDF as an attachment.

When I make a crontab with this script shedulded, I recieve the email but not the attachment. When I launch the script manually, I have the email and the attachment.

Here is the PHP code of the sendMail function :

function sendMail()
{
            $corpse = file_get_contents(dirname(__FILE__).'/output/output.tpl');
            $mail = new PHPMailer;
            $mail->isMail();
            $mail->IsHTML(true);
            $mail->From='SenderMailAddress';
            $mail->FromName='SenderName';
            $mail->AddAddress('MyEmail');
            $date = date("Ymd", time());
            $yesterday = date("Ymd", strtotime("-1 day"));
            if ($this->type == cur)
                    $pj = "/opt/birt/ReportEngine/output/bookingperiod_".$date.".pdf";
            else
                    $pj = "/opt/birt/ReportEngine/output/bookingperiod_".$yesterday.".pdf";
            echo $pj;
            $mail->AddAttachment($pj);
            $mail->AddReplyTo('NoReplyAddress');
            $mail->Subject='SubjectOfTheMail';
            $mail->Body=$corpse;
            if (!$mail->Send())
                    echo "Error Sending: ".$mail->ErrorInfo;
            unset($mail);
}

The script that I put as a crontask :

TODAY=`date "+%Y-%m-%d"`

export BIRT_HOME=/opt/birt
echo $TODAY

cd /opt/birt/ReportEngine
php GenPeriod.php PDF $TODAY /*first generation of a PDF file which will be the attachment for the PHP script*/

cd MY_PATH_TO_PHPSCRIPT_FOLDER
php Launche.php cur

Do someone already encounter the same type of problem ?

How can you solve it ?

Thanks ;)

Answer 1

One of the main differences between running a PHP file from command-line and by requesting it from the webserver, is the current directory.

It's a common mistake to forget about it, so I'd try chdir(dirname(__FILE__).'/'); at the top of your file.

If that's not the problem, show some code, run it with all errors enabled and check its output (of the cronjob).

Try something like this and continue with verifing file permissions.

function sendMail()
{
        $corpse = file_get_contents(dirname(__FILE__).'/output/output.tpl');
        $mail = new PHPMailer;
        $mail->isMail();
        $mail->IsHTML(true);
        $mail->From='SenderMailAddress';
        $mail->FromName='SenderName';
        $mail->AddAddress('MyEmail');
        $date = date("Ymd", time());
        $yesterday = date("Ymd", strtotime("-1 day"));
        if ($this->type == cur)
                $pj = "/opt/birt/ReportEngine/output/bookingperiod_".$date.".pdf";
        else
                $pj = "/opt/birt/ReportEngine/output/bookingperiod_".$yesterday.".pdf";
        //echo $pj;

        $mail->Subject = (is_readable($pj)) ? 'The file is readable' : 'The file is NOT readable'; // DEBUG

        $mail->AddAttachment($pj);
        $mail->AddReplyTo('NoReplyAddress');
        //$mail->Subject='SubjectOfTheMail';
        $mail->Body=$corpse;
        if (!$mail->Send())
                echo "Error Sending: ".$mail->ErrorInfo;
        unset($mail);
}

在cron作业脚本中，在MY_PATH_TO_PHPSCRIPT_FOLDER前面缺少$ -sign。
