Hi, Tristan Here.
While trying to make a community site, every time I try to install ANY software onto the kidmovie.tristanb.x10.mx domain, it comes up with the error of "No Cron Minute Was Specified" - *I have not tried this on any of my other domains, but I will try.*
I've looked it up on the internet, but it only comes up with the 'Cron Job' thing on the x10 ToS website - but that's the most relevant I've found.
I've tried clearing my cache, waiting 24 hrs, Logging Out then in again... the list is endless.
Please Help Me!

BTW - First Post!
*Edit - I cannot do this on any other of my domains - 3/11/13 15.44 *

Is there any solution for this problem? I got the same error when trying to install Magento CE.
Thanks!

When you go to install magento for instance, there will be a part saying CRON job, by default filled with 3,28,35,47 (which means it is run 3 mins, 28 mins, 35 mins and 47 mins past the hour) in the first field and * * * * for the remaining four fields. That first field would relate to minutes.
Leaving everything as default I had no issues installing magento through softaculous on the same server as you two are located. Make sure that you do not remove any part of the CRON settings. Same goes for any other scripts that might utilize a CRON option, check to verify that it has proper settings.
The fields would be in order: Minute - Hour - Day of Month - Month - Day of Week
No field can be empty, on free hosting you can not run crons any closer apart then 5 minutes so the first field would need to have a number and not an * (the * signifies to run every min, hour, day etc depending on which field it is set in).
The same obviously would apply if you install manually by using a script you downloaded from the official site of the script in question, there should be a field to specify cron settings in during install.
