I needed help on my cronjob experiment, im unable to accomplish what i wanted. below are the things I did.
/var/www/html/bob/test/index.php
My index.php
<?php
$myfile = fopen("testfile.txt", "w");
?>
My various tested parameters for crontab -e which didn't work
*/1 * * * * root /usr/bin/php /var/www/html/bob/test/index.php
*/1 * * * * root /var/www/html/bob/test/index.php
*/1 * * * * root php -q /var/www/html/bob/test/index.php
*/1 * * * * root /var/www/html/bob/test/index.php
looking at some of my /var/log/cron I dont see any error indication.
Sep 6 15:55:01 localhost CROND[4866]: (root) CMD (root /var/www/html/bob/test/index.php)
Sep 6 15:56:01 localhost CROND[4872]: (root) CMD (root /var/www/html/bob/test/index.php)
Sep 6 15:57:01 localhost CROND[4878]: (root) CMD (root /var/www/html/bob/test/index.php)
Lastly, when i run my php via #php /var/www/html/bob/test/index.php
the code executes fine and creates that textfile.
You need to remove root
from your cronjob. The log is showing it's trying to execute a program called root with /var/www/html/bob/test/index.php
as a parameter.
Instead, use the following as your cronjob:
*/1 * * * * /usr/bin/php /var/www/html/bob/test/index.php
This answer states that if you want to set the user for a cronjob to be run, you have to edit /etc/crontab
directly, not by using crontab -e
.
1 * * * * /usr/bin/php /var/www/html/bob/test/index.php
if this not working, so you have a probleme of permission , try to use chown and chmod for giving the right permission
and for $myfile = fopen("testfile.txt", "w"); try to use the absolute path for the file testfile.txt like :
$myfile = fopen("/home/xxxx/testfile.txt", "w");
