Problems running CiviMailProcessor.php
April 26, 2009, 07:02:24 pm
From the browser, with the username, password, and site key included as parameters in the URL, the browser pauses for 5 seconds or so, then displays the CiviCRM home menu with an informational message that 'There are no Activities to display.'

From the shell using wget, I get a '403 Forbidden' error. All the containing directories are protected 755, as is CiviMailProcessor.php

Nothing appears in the Apache error log.

Any ideas?

The sample URL in the documentation (for a Drupal site) is:

$ wget 'http://<drupal_root>/sites/all/modules/civicrm/bin/UpdateMembershipRecord.php?name=<username>&pass=<password>&key=<sitekey>'

... so I think the URL you're running might not be correct - you need to reference the script as shown above (adjusting based on where the CiviCRM codebase is installed relative to your drupal root - if necessary).

Duh!  Such a simple (and embarrassing!) error.  ::) I'll give it a whirl.
