Hi guys, I just set up a cron job using the cron job maker in cpanel.

I'm trying to run a file in my directory.
Every minute, the cron job is supposed to execute. I know that on free hosting, cron jobs can run at most every five minutes, but the first one should at least run and wait for the next five.

This is my command
/public_html/joomla_1.5/Daily Log.html

I don't specify a user to run the command.

I've set the permissions on the file to 755 and I'm supposed to be getting an email to my yahoo email every time a cron job runs but I don't get any emails.


I just don't know what to do :confused:
Any help would be greatly appreciated. You guys have helped me a lot in the past so thank you!
