CRONJOB

[online82]

I just installed ListMail and set up the cron job...
How do I test if the cron job works?

Greetings,

You can either wait until the job executes or temporarily schedule the job to run every minute (Timing: * * * * *).  If it's running correctly, and the dailymail report is enabled, you should receive the dailymail report when it executes.

I scheduled a couple of tasks, and was waiting for the email,
but it didn't come through.  

I manually ran daily mail and it ran my task, and then
it sent me the email.

Do I have the daily task run the task manually?
I did the cron job already...

The task should execute and send you a report automatically without the need to run it manually.

It's possible that your host does not support the "/usr/bin/wget" system program used by the task.

An alternative commandline, using another common system utility, curl, might be:

Code: [Select]

curl -o /dev/null http://example.com/mail/dailymail.php?pw=mypass 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null
