Answer 2

You were very close with one of your examples!

Try:

php index.php user cron_jobs job

Hope this helps!

However, if the above doesn't work please have a look at this Link .

Answer 3

Instead of php index.php user/cron_jobs job try php-cli index.php user/cron_jobs job

Some servers require the php-cli for command line interface execution.
