I am facing a problem with custom email. Email does not sent automatically according to its schedule.
Cron is working fine. I have debug code using Mage::log(). I am getting each log before sendTransactional function after that log is not working.
However its working fine with Aoe_schedule when I execute cron forcefully.
But Its not working automatically..
So the code is correct. Problem is with automatic cron execution.
You can create a crontab file
in server cmd
crontab -e
in open window
SHELL=/bin/bash
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
MAILTO=your email for error message
*/5 * * * * full path to your site cron.sh file(example: /home/username/www/public_html/cron.sh)
this is will execute your cron.sh every 5 minutes and Aoe_Sheduler dosen't write a warning about heartbeat

I wan to create cron job that runs a shell script every minute I've tried editing contrab -e with:
1 * * * * sh ~/test.sh
to no avail
I recommend using: https://crontab.guru/
This is a really insightful way to create and understand cron jobs.
This should trigger every minute. However, when a cron runs it can run as a different user and that script location might be different. Adding a log file might help you track down what is going on.
* * * * * /bin/sh /home/user/test.sh >> /var/log/myjob.log 2>&1
How i can run my Schedule task every minute? When i run command php artisan schedule:run, console get "No scheduled commands are ready to run.". How i should set my Tasks properly? For example if I use solo command php artisan command:send_info_email_before_event it works, but i want do it with schedule:run when i develop app.
/**
* Define the application's command schedule.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Console\Scheduling\Schedule $schedule
* #return void
*/
protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
{
$schedule->command('command:send_info_email_before_event')
->everyMinute();
}
You should be setting this up via cron job to run every minute. Task scheduling is not intended to be run manually.
In the terminal run:
crontab -e
Then add:
* * * * * cd /path-to-your-project && php artisan schedule:run >> /dev/null 2>&1
Once saved, this will then run the application scheduler every minute (without you needing to run php artisan schedule:run.
See the docs for more information.
In windows you can schedule a task.
Open the Windows start menu and type in "Scheduled Tasks". This will
open the Task Scheduler. After that click Create Task (I would not
suggest using basic task, as it is too basic for cron jobs).
This will open a window that allows you to create a new "Cron Job" in Windows 10.
Name: This is an easy way for you to remember what that task does. You can enter anything.
Description: Just a more in-depth description for you to remember what it is.
User Account: I would suggest using a full privileged account so that your cron jobs can create and modify files if it needs to. But I would also suggest using an account dedicated to Cron jobs so that you can revoke permissions any time you need to!
Due to the nature of a website, I would definitely check “Run when user is logged in or not” and leave do not store password (This can throw an XML invalid error if you leave this unchecked and a password is required)
And I would also check "Run with Highest Privileges"
After that, Click "Trigger" and "Add new"
To run a "Cron Job" task that runs more than once a day, Click Daily task. Recure daily, and repeat the task every minute. Be sure to click enabled. After that click Okay and click the tab "Actions" and New…
Set program/Script to the /path/to/php.exe and arguments to /path/to/artisan schedule run. Be sure to use "" if you have spaces in the path. I would suggest using them either way as a rule of thumb.
Remember to not use production email credentials, you can use something like https://mailtrap.io to "trap" all sent emails.
I am having Magento 1.9.3 and i am new to Magento.
My newsletter subscription is not working. I have checked all things in magento configuration. Seems its the trouble with cron on server. But with out knowing i do not want to make changes on server. I am using A2 hosting provider, and there is a cron set like this, which runs for every 30 mins.
/bin/cagefs_enter.proxied php /home/lasakico/public_html/cron.php 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null
I am not sure what is the problem, either its the problem with cron or magento.
I have checked magento configuration->Advanced->System->Cron, where values are stored for Generate Schedules Every : 15. and rest are like 20, 15, 10, 60,600
Please let me know if anything is not clear in the question. I will ans them.
Magento has a script called cron.php which handles all of the timed jobs that your Magento store has to do. In this list is the task of sending out newsletters. You have to set up your server crontab to run this cron.php script at regular intervals (eg 5 minutes).
Once you do this, you should find that your newsletter will be sent out as expected
Open up an SSH session with your server. (If you can’t do this you
are going to have to ask your hosts to do this for you instead).
Browse to the document root of your magento store, the folder with
cron.php in there
enter the command
pwd This command gives you the current full path. Write this down
somewhere
enter the command
which php
This command gives you the path to your PHP binary. Write this down somewhere
enter the command
crontab -e
This opens up your crontab editor which is the system for scheduling
tasks on Linux
hit the [i] key to go into insert mode on the crontab editor (vi
basically)
on a new line paste the following, but replacing the paths with the
paths you got before
*/5 * * * * /path/to/php -f /path/to/cron.php
Hit [esc] then type the command
:wq
This saves the crontab or cntrl + x and Y
Create a newsletter and schedule it to send in 2 minutes time.
I noticed the cron jobs not working because some tasks were not performed (automatic feed generation, google sitemap, ...).
1) I installed the (very useful) AOE scheduler
2) I've checked cron_schedule SQL table via PHPmyAdmin: no task is generated, but if I press Generate schedule in AOE scheduler, a list of task is generated. All tasks remain in pending status (executed at NULL).
3) I've set (crontab -e)
0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * /home/fpl/webapps/magento/cron.sh
I've tried to run cron.sh manually via SSH. When I run manually the sh the heartbeat task is run. So I'm also sure the problem is not in the cron.sh script.
Cron is properly running on the server.
Configuration
Webfaction hosting
Magento ver. 1.8.0.0
Cron schedule Configuration on magento admin panel
Generate Schedules Every 1
Schedule Ahead for 20
Missed if Not Run Within 15
Heartbeat task schedule (cron syntax) 0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * *
Thanks for your help!
my guess is that your cron.sh is not executable and that's why nothing is happening.
Please check the file persmission and add the executable flag
chmod +x /home/fpl/webapps/magento/cron.sh
You might also want to check your server's log files for cron (e.g. https://askubuntu.com/questions/56683/where-is-the-cron-crontab-log)
Instead of relying on the fact that cron is executable you could also run it like this
/bin/bash /home/fpl/webapps/magento/cron.sh
And: instead of writing down the minutes like that you should be using this:
*/5 * * * * /bin/bash /home/fpl/webapps/magento/cron.sh
Did you check the status for crontab?
service crond status // depends on your OS
If its not running, start it
service crond start
And configure for system startup
chkconfig crond on
HTH
Good luck!
edit cron.sh and change line 39 to:
PHP_BIN=`/usr/local/bin/php56`
It tries to use which php but that isn't so great on webfaction servers as there are lots of php versions.
Adding
crontab -e */5 * * * * /usr/bin/wget -O /dev/null -q http://www.partsfortreadmill.com/cron.php
and setting a proper cron.php in the above path
I have a raspberrypi setup with emulation station and retropie. I have a cronjob set up so I can send myself an email at 8am everyday written in ruby. This script has worked effectively 100% when I first set it up but ever sice I upgraded my raspberrypi to the newest version of retropie and emulationstation, the cronjob has stopped work 80% of the time.
0 8 * * * ruby /home/pi/Facebook/facebook.rb
Is what it is currently. It worked yesterday.
I've tried these methods as well:
0 8 * * * 'ruby /home/pi/Facebook/facebook.rb'
0 8 * * * /bin/bash ruby /home/pi/Facebook/facebook.rb
0 8 * * * /bin/bash 'ruby /home/pi/Facebook/facebook.rb'
0 8 * * * /bin/bash -l -c 'ruby /home/pi/Facebook/facebook.rb'
I am not sure what the -l and -c is supposed to mean. However this one worked all the time when I had it set up before upgrading. Is the pi skipping the job at 8am or doing another job at that time which causes it to miss it? Or is it my script which may take forever to send the email via ruby to my gmail account?
Usually cron sends a error mail to the owner of the crontab, so check that owner's emails on that machine.
It is most likely a problem with the cron environment. Cron uses its own environment when starting jobs.
It sounds like the cron job is running your script, but your script may be erroring-out or timing out. You might want to add some logging to your script, so you can see where the problem is.
