PHP script not sending email when called throught a cron with lynx

It works ok with lynx via the command line and through IE.

Why is this not working through a cron?

[MarkReaktor7]

the question is why are you using cron to run a php file with lynx?

instead of putting in the lynx command just use somethign along the lines of

/usr/local/bin/php -q -f /path/to/file.php

and it will do it without lynx.

The file is not on the server I am running the crontab from.

I've actually seen a trend in this lately. More than a few of our customers have cron entries like this:

What? Am I missing something?

Not Found

The requested URL /article/weekmailer.php was not found on this server.
Apache Server at domain.com Port 80

Yes, the above URL is an example and the resource to which it points does not actually exist.

Ah, ok. Now I feel silly .

What about the problem of no emails being received? Did anyone solve that? I've got a cron job backing up a database which works fine but it's not sending (or I'm not receiving) the email notification.
