Hello,

I'm running my cronjobs "updatemembership" and "mailings" through the new scheduled jobs in civicrm 4.1.0. and with
/sites/all/modules/civicrm/bin/cron.php?

I'm getting this message :

Fatal error: Call to undefined function module_exists() in /home/chautaar/public_html/sites/all/modules/civicrm/CRM/Core/BAO/Navigation.php on line 587

Majo

I'm seeing the same thing with Drupal 6.22 and CiviCRM 4.1.1.

I've done a bit of checking and I think that this is because I use the wget (or whatever) method to run cron jobs rather than the CLI.  My guess is that the CLI bootstraps Drupal under the covers so that module_exists() gets defined.  If the bootstrapping happened when cron.php is run via wget then module_exists() would have to be defined.

In Drupal 6, includes/bootstrap.inc drupal_bootstrap() (indirectly via _drupal_bootstrap()) requires module.inc, which defines module_exists().

My reason for using wget/cron.php is that I've never been able to get the CLI to work.  My setup uses a bunch of symlinks and I've never been able to convince the CLI to work...

Just for completeness, it seems that I can now run the CLI.  I had $civicrm_root set to what I will call a non-canonical value.  It wasn't pointing to civicrm via the actual Drupal installation but instead via a directory that is linked to from the Drupal installation.  Using the canonical path to civicrm via the Drupal installation directory seems to have fixed my CLI problems...  so this problem goes away, since I no longer need to use the "wget method"...
