Hi Pam,

Try something like this for your CRON job:-

php -q /home/MYUSERNAME/public_html/whatever.php

If the -q flag doesn't work, try it with -f instead. As long as your script
works through the browser, you shouldn't have any problems.

Lee.

I am after a job where there will be csv files on a ftp server that will
need uploading to a database once a day and I am trying to work out the best

way to do it. I gather you need "allow_url_fopen = On" set in php.ini to be

able to use the ftpwrapper. Is it likely to be set to on? It should be in
php as far as I know unless they change their mind. I was wondering about
setting up a cron job to do it. Has anyone done anything similar as I am
looking for pointers in the right direction?


Thanks
Pam
