Hello,

I'm running my scripts in cron. The scripts civimail.cronjob.php and EmailProcessor.php are programmed using php-cli as explained in the documentation
cd /var/www/sites/all/modules/civicrm; nice -n19 /usr/bin/php  bin/EmailProcessor.php   -sdefault -uuser -ppassword
These scripts run like clockwork and never (well almost never) throw errors.

My UpdateMembershipRecord.php script is however running using wget. On occasion I get errors running it this way, especially when the server is busy.  I'd like to run it using php-cli like my other scripts, but I can't seem to figure out how to pass the parameters to it. The syntax with wget is &name=user&pass=password&key=site-key, but php-cli doesn't accept them in that form. I've tried a couple of variations with no success.

Anyone done this before with this script ?
