Crons

[jbrennec13]

Cron jobs keep getting removed, any reason why?

Of course, any one job cannot be scheduled for more than once every 5 minutes.

But, in addition, no two cron jobs can start less that five minutes apart.

So, if job A runs every half hour at 0 and 30 and job B runs once a day at 12:30 am, you have a conflict, and the system will remove them both.

Every 5 minutes? Then why isn't that noted or the option of entering less than 5 minutes available?

It almost seems like a once a month flush!

I have 5 crons all running at different intervals, none over lapping and ALL get removed.

upgraded accounts on your server can run then with less time between starts

If one starts over in less than five (5) minutes or two or more start within five (5) minutes - all of your jobs are removed

What are the time lines for each of those 5 Cron jobs ?

WOW! Thanks. Sorry I didn't LOOK before I posted. Maybe it should be noted on the CRON page?
I will try to do my research better in the future.

I have changed 2 cron jobs to only run every 5 minutes instead of every minute, within the hour they need to run.
