cronw

[Todd Holley]

Are there any other programs that due the same thing as cronw? I am having serious problems setting up cronw. And I need to set up some cron jobs on windows for mb to automatically send out invoices.

On windows just create a .bat file and a scheduled task.

So i would open notepad put in

3-58/5 * * * * /path/to/php -q -f /path/to/mb/include/scripts/cron_dispatch.cron.php /path/to/mb/ cron ENCKEY

And save the file with the .bat extension. Then go into scheduled tasks and tell it to run every day at 12:03 am and it would work correctly?

 

 

Thanks for the help.

Run the batch file manually first to make sure it works proerly and creates the invoices. Then add it as a scheduled task.

[studeggle]

.bat files don't understand the time information that is placed in the scheduled task. They also don't understand user information once again that is in the scheduled task.

Use roughly:

/path/to/php -q -f /path/to/mb/include/scripts/cron_dispatch.cron.php /path/to/mb/

 

For more precise google cron and .bat conversion. I'm good at writing my own .bat but trying to write a generic thing like above gets a bit confusing to my head. I keep looking for the hard drive information

I dont think your listening to ECF. Reread his post.

 

Make a bat file first, then make sure it works without the sheduled tasls
