CRON allows you to run PHP scripts periodically. There are two ways to add a CRON job.
Option 1:
wget -O /dev/null http://yourdomain.com/file.php
Option 2:
/usr/local/bin/php /home/yourusername/domains/yourdomain.com/public_html/file.php
(make sure there is a space between …/php and /home/..!)
Scripts executed by CRON must use absolute file and directory paths (full path).
Reports on the success or failure of CRON-executed scripts are sent to the main user’s mailbox (e.g., np***** or r******).
Be sure to disable email reporting after CRON is working, as it may otherwise flood your main user’s mailbox and account.
In case of issues, the error explanation can be found in the same report sent to the main user’s mailbox. You can log in to the mailbox via the usual webmail address. Use your control panel username (main user) as the login.
