Cron Jobs

[froger]

Hello, I am still a lil bit of a noob on cron jobs. How do I set up one to work properly? I need a php script ran ever 2 minutes (if thats not a heavy load on the server.) I set one up successfully but it seemed to me that it was updating at much much much faster rate than every 2 minutes.

SCRATCH THIS POST, you're the guy who moved to paid per Brandon, my bad.

Can you add a log thing where it writes to a file the exact time it's running, just to confirm that it is indeed running faster than 2 minutes?

Actually when I deleted it, and re entered it, it seems to be working fine now. Before I was just in my phpMyAdmin and was just refreshing my table. Every 9-15 seconds I noticed that the table would get updated. Now it does it every 2 minutes like it should.

Glad it fixed itself; almost sounds like somehow it set it for 20 seconds instead of 2 minutes, which I haven't a -clue- how it could do XD

In any case at least it's functioning now
