Hi I just set a new VPS acct and logging into my WHM I see no cron icon. I click the cpanel icon that is in my WHM page and again there is no cron icon. Now I havent set up any accts (domains) with WHM yet, as it was my first venture into it just a few minutes ago. I was told my by my...

Is there a cpanel program that enables running a script one time only, but not on a regular basis like cron job?

I have been getting this error for a while now, just kept brishing it off, but I must finally ask you guys what you know about. I couldnt find anything here about, but here it goes. /etc/cron.daily/logrotate: error: error accessing /var/log/httpd: No such file or directory error...

Hello, 1- How can disable cron job for users? 2- How can see crated cron job by users?

Every time i try to create a cron using Cpanel, i save it, it then says "cron updated!", but the cron is not saved. I recently updated my cpanel installation through whm, could this have caused this and, if so, what is the solution to this problem? Thanks.

Hi Is there any way to prevent users from setting up cron jobs? IE prevent them setting up crons that run every minute, hour, etc. Cheers

Hi, I just realised that my cron jobs have stopped working - on two completely seperate servers. Server 1 is running: WHM 10.8.0 cPanel 10.9.0-R118 CentOS 4.5 i686 - WHM X v3.1.0 Server 2 is running: WHM 10.8.0 cPanel 10.9.0-R139 CentOS 4.5 i686 - WHM X v3.1.0 So...

Your cPanel thingy needs to have the time of day indicated on the CRON jobs screen. It does little good to specify that you want a job to run in two minutes when it turns out the job won't run for an hour or 23 hours. Don't you think that is a little silly? By putting the server time on...

Hello, Today accidentally while installing a new cron, I've typed fast crontab -r instead of crontab -e. I dont know who was the idiot who had the nice idea to have the -r and -e for delete edit, one key near the other. I would like to know if anybody can give me a copy of a fresh cPanel...

Every night I am receiving report from Cron running /scripts/upcp Under WHM/Update config I have all settings to manual update. So what is this process Cron is running, for ? In this report there is something like this 8among other things) : ************** Found hostname to be...

Having some issues with a cronjob that formerly ran perfectly, and now appear to have caused itself upset... $HOME/public_html/rss/index-xml.php - this regenerates my RSS feed from my database, and runs at 1 minute past the hour, and simply uses fpopen to write to...

Hi, I do hope someone here can help me, and I appreciate anyone who does try. Basically, on my server you cannot do anything with cron jobs, i.e. edit/delete/create etc The option is there with all the buttons, and when you try to save it no errors occur, but the cron is never created...

I'm a little curious when cron jobs are set at intervals how CentOS would determine what the start day was.... What I'm trying to do is have a 10 day cron job ran every day at say around.... 8PM EST. My server time zone is set as -500 EST. If I were to add my cronjob at 8PM EST on the dot...

Some cronjobs (that running */5 */15 etc) are running twice, like this: */5 * * * * /usr/local/cpanel/bin/dcpumon >/dev/null 2>&1 */15 * * * * /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/bin/dnsqueue > /dev/null 2>&1 look my /var/log/cron: But the cronjobs that run once per day, run fine, like this...

To all cpanel developer staffs, Please kindly consider to build cron feature which allow the server owner set: 1. The maximum crontab schedule per user. 2. The maximum time allowed. i.e user can only run crontab schedule max every 15 minutes or every hour . Not allowed to run it every...

Hi all, I couldn't find any error to trace down the reason why my php script did not run though cron indicate that it was started. When i run the script manually, it works. I couldn't remember what caused this.

I don't see an option in WHM to add a cron to the root crontab file. I know that individual users can add crons via their own cPanel, but these crons will run under the permissions of that user only. I need to add a cron to the root cron jobs. Is this possible via WHM? If so, where? If...
