I have installed the civicrm normalise extension (https://civicrm.org/extensions/normalise-data-entered-firstname-last-name) and my cron has stopped working. When i disable the extension cron works again.
Any idea?? I am on Drupal 7 and CiviCRM 4.3.1

Hi Xavier,
jobs run manually with no errors from this link civicrm/admin/job?action=export&id=1&reset=1

but automatic  jobs like clean-up temporary data and files (hourly), fetch bounces (hourly), send scheduled mailings stops when extension is enabled and can only be triggered manually.

Hi Xavier,
I am running cron from wget using CLI.php. I have only four enabled cron tasks, clean-up temporary data and files, fetch bounces, send scheduled mailings and Validate email address from mailings.

I have disabled them except one, and none of the cron task did run while the extension is enabled.

Thank you for willing to help, i may keep the extension disabled for the time being till i can figure out the problem.

are u in a way saying i shouldn't use this on the crontab?

*/15 * * * * /path/to/php /path/to/civcrm/module/bin/cli.php -s site -u user -p password -e Job -a execute

If i do "*/15 * * * * /path/to/php /path/to/civcrm/module/bin/cli.php -s site -u user -p password -e Job -a execute", from the command line, nothing is spitted out meaning that all scheduled tasks are executed. Just to confirm,  civicrm/admin/job?reset=1 ,  also shows that all jobs did run when i issued the command.
