Cron not allowed on my server !!
November 11, 2013, 11:54:27 am
Hello,
it seems that my provider (one.com) don't allow cron job !
I guess it's why mailing are not working (Stay in scheduled) even if  I activated the cron job "send scheduled mailing" job.
Does somebody know a solution ?
I found "https://mywebcron-com".... which seems to be a free cron job scheduler. Does somebody know this service ?
What schould I have to schedule exactly ? civicrm/bin/cron.php ?

Thanks
Hapache

I would suggest you to find a provider that isn't actively trying to make your life miserable ;)

For what we've seen, if you find the provider blocking something, it's likely they block others and the cost saving isn't worthwhile the time you're going to loose on that

A short term solution is to run the cronjobs manually.

Hello Xavier,

Thanks for your answer.
But could you tell me how to run the job manually.
I had a look to various post about cron job, but didn't find something that help me and some references to civi wiki seems to be no more working !

Thanks

If you don't have privilege to setup cron job or don’t know how to, a third party webcron may be a good option for you. EasyCron provides a free plan at http://www.easycron.com/user/register/plan/1

1) Sign up an account on http://www.easycron.com

2) In the URL field of the Create Cron Job form, enter:

http://www.example.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/bin/cron.php

3) In the POST field, enter:

name=username&pass=password&key=site-key&job=process_mailing
