Cron Job Problems

[mafiabiz]

Hi there,
I have a browser based game which relies upon cron jobs to update the game at intervals

My main, daily update is the one I can't get to work at all, it seems to be looking in the wrong dir no matter where I tell it??

it's looking in sh/bin

I have seen the prob listed in a google search but can't fix it

anyone know their cron jobs really well?, or rather bugs/probz with them lol

Why don't you go to the control panel, click on 'cron jobs'
Click on 'Standard' or 'Advanced'
Copy the string in the 'Command to run:' box
Paste it here so we can see what you are telling it to do.
Then tell us what you expect it to do.

We are very good here. But we are not mind readers.

If I remember correctly the syntax to run a php page as cron was something like "php -q /path/to/php/file.php"
