I solved the problem by installing my own instance of phpMyAdmin.

I am able to login to phpMyAdmin, but nothing functions. If I try to expand the tree to look at tables or when I click on a tab, it perpetually hangs with a "loading" message. It's completely non-functional. Can anybody suggest a fix or an alternative method of managing my DB?

Might depend what server you're on. My site is on chopin.

So, 2 weeks after I put in my trouble ticket, cron suddenly started working yesterday at 1pm EST. I didn't get a response to my ticket, so I guess I will never know why it wasn't working or what happened to suddenly make it start working. It wasn't anything I did, since I gave up on it about a...

I'm still having problems getting any cron job to run. I've been having this problem since the first time I tried to launch a cron job a week ago. Here's the background: 1. Server: chopin 2. I can't get any visible result from attempting to run a cron job. I've tried launching various php...

Which server are you on? What do you mean when you say that there's been a temporary disturbance offline?

mission: Thanks for the great suggestions! I've bumped your reputation. Here's what I get from your php script to show the system cron jobs: MAILTO="wally@yahoo.com" */2 * * * * touch /home/wally/etc/cron.test */5 * * * * php /home/wally/public_html/cron_test.php */5 * * * * php...

Ok, I'm on php 5.2.9, which, according to some things I've read on the forum, might mean I'm on the intermediate version. Either way, I'm unable to get any output from a php script or even from a direct linux command, e.g., 'touch'. I assume that there are php functions that would work in a...

I don't know if I'm using basic or intermediate php. How can I tell. Does that make a difference? Also: 1. In addition to trying to launch a php script from a cron job, I also issued a direct 'touch' command, which also did nothing. 2. If you run a cron job and it fails because of a...

I'm having the same problem; I have not been able to successfully run any cron job or get any email, or indication of what's going on. I also created your "periodic" file and it doesn't work for me, either. I can't figure out what's going on. I'm on the chopin server, BTW. Guess I'll put in...

OK, thanks for the clarification. That should not be a problem.

I have a need to pull data from another site at regular intervals. I want to create a cron job to do this. What are the guidelines for how often a cron job can execute? I don't want to bog down the server or violate any site rules.

So, is there some way to set the correct TZ for my domain? It's a nuisance having it perpetually 1 hour off. How do other people deal with this?

I wanted to correct the timezone for my site. Right now, the default time zone for the server appears to be Chicago/Central time. I edited my .htacess files to add this as the first line: SetEnv TZ America/New_York The problem is that when I test the time, it still shows the time zone is...

My cPanel access on Chopin is not working today. It was fine for the last 2 days and now gone. Anybody else having this problem?
