Can't add Cron job

[nakamura00]

Hi,

I try to add a cron job in cPanel but it not show in entry after added.

when I go back it show empty !

I try to chmod crontab

#chmod 4755 /usr/bin/crontab
#chmod 1777 /var/spool/cron

And I try to update CP
#/scripts/upcp

But not working.

I'm go to /var/spool/cron It don't show user to create cron job it's show root only.

How to resolve them ?

Thank you !

Ask someone to login to your server and check. As far as I can see what you have done is correct so far.

0 23 * * * php -q /home/user/public_html/members/schedules/generate_invoice.php

Not sure if this'll help, but try it. Remove the word SPACE and leave one.


php -q /home/user/public_html/members/schedules/generate_invoice.phpSPACE/home/user/public_html/members/schedules/


I've got a cron in my cPanel running for years that updates a folding@home stats page that looks like this. Works perfectly.


php -q -f /home/username/public_html/stats/fah.php /home/username/public_html/stats/ cron 0 10

Does it show up when exeucting the following as root:

crontab -l -u username

[nakamura00]

Does it show up when exeucting the following as root:

crontab -l -u username

no crontab for username

* username = username account for hosting


It's look like cronjob doesn't create username in /var/spool/cron

How to repair cronjob system ?

[cpanelkenneth]

Which version of cPanel are you using? full version number please.

Also,

What is your Operating System?

Does /etc/cron.allow exist?

Can you create a crontab manually from the command line as the user (not as root)?
