# did you move your site recently?
# can you look in: /administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/civicrm.config.php -- and confirm that the location is correct?

Yes I moved the site recently
civicrm.config.php is just a single line with a require_once of civicrm.settings.php, both files are fine.

My site is on a subdomain, not sure if that could have something to do with it or not, but thouht might worth a mention

After making crawdaddyFL changes, I now get a blank screen when trying to pull the civicrm/bin/cron.php...... URL, so the jtrigger error appears to be fixed.

However, after create a test mailing and scheduling it for instant sending, on going to the bin/crop.php URL (it returns blank, not sure if this is a good or bad sign). But when I go to the mailing page, my test mailing reports as not being started.

usr238496 · July 09, 2012, 03:02:26 pm

ok, it turns out things were not sorted at all

Point 1: from crawdaddy was causing me issues, by changing to

Code: [Select]

$joomlaBase = dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(__FILE__)))))))).'/';

10 or so lines down this causes me issues here with a double slash

Code: [Select]

    require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/import.php';
   require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/joomla/environment/uri.php';
    require $joomlaBase . '/configuration.php';

On stepping through the code, I get to line 10 in /root/libraries/joomla/environment/uri.php

Code: [Select]

defined('JPATH_PLATFORM') or die;

which not being set, is killing the page.
That can be "fixed" by (which appears to be the same thing in my tests

Code: [Select]

 if(!defined('JPATH_PLATFORM') && defined('JPATH_LIBRARIES')) {
	define('JPATH_PLATFORM', JPATH_LIBRARIES);
}

Ok, so I can now confirm the bin/cron.php file runs to completion.

But still when I go to the Scheduled and Sent Mailings page, the mailing has not started to send.

usr238496 · July 10, 2012, 06:39:06 am

Anyone got any ideas?

usr238496 · July 10, 2012, 07:04:38 am

ok, so another day, another step further

civicrm/CRM/Core/JobManager.php
public function execute( $auth = true )

I followed the code to here and the $job "Send Scheduled Mailings" was always set to $job->is_active= false;

Forcing this to true and the mailings were sent

So I guess my problem is, why is this set to false, when I am forcing the mailings to send by going to the bin/cron.php URL?

usr238496 · July 10, 2012, 08:46:12 am

and we are now fixed

Administer > System settings > scheduled jobs

Send scheduled mails was set to disabled, probably explains why they wouldn't send.

The CLI cron does not work, but I can call
wget http://.....bin/cron.php
and things get fired.

What a bloody palaver, but we are there. So all good

For what it's worth, v 4.1.5 and/or the reinstallation of everything as part of installing it appears to have fixed the problem for me.

Lobo,

FYI, I applied the patch from fisheye2.atlassian.com/changelog/CiviCRM?cs=41430

it works if I edit the two files in place.

However when I set "Settings - Upload Directories" php directory to /home/doman/public_html/templates/civicrm/
and place the 2 modified files there, then I upload edited files from this location I get this error:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class CRM_Utils_System_Joomla in /home/domain/public_html/templates/civicrm/CRM/Utils/System/Joomla.php on line 573 when I browse here:
domain.org/administrator/?option=com_civicrm&task=civicrm/admin/job&reset=1

Just an FYI in case it's important for dev. purposes.

has this been submitted as a bug and official patch done yet? I think it maybe what is causing my problems on generating receipts. http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,25176.msg106280.html#msg106280

Haven't checked the forum for a while, and this topic definitely helped me with the CRON job not kicking off the scheduled jobs.

Applied the patches as listed here: fisheye2.atlassian.com/changelog/CiviCRM?cs=41430 directly to the files, and then watched the CRON job kick off the hourly jobs for the first time since I installed 4.1.x .

Thanks to all who researched and found the problem.

For those with the "PHP Fatal error: Class 'JDispatcher' not found" problem running cron jobs via php-cli with Joomla 2.5.6:

Adding the line with the arrow to CRM/Utils/System/Joomla.php works for me.

Code: [Select]

  function loadBootStrap($params = array(

 ...

    // Get the framework.
    require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/import.php';
-->    require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/joomla/event/dispatcher.php';
    require $joomlaBase . '/libraries/joomla/environment/uri.php';
    require $joomlaBase . '/configuration.php';

I patched 4.2 with the above fix
