I was trying to set up the "Use External Cron" function in "Advanced" menu so that I can use the Authorize-AIM plugin. Unfortunetely my webhosting company (VERIO) doesn't support the crontab function itself. However VERIO offers different way to do it. Please see the following link for the detail. http://support.hosting.verio.com/verioknow...ic/ves30133.htm I would like to know if it is possible to set up the "External Cron" with this VERIO's webhosting. And if it is possible, how can I write the "cron.sh" script? Any idea?
Yes, you can write cron.sh file. It will look like: Code: #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/wget -O /dev/null http://WWW.YOURSITE.COM/amember/cron.php?pass=YOUR_CRON_PASSWORD
Thank you, Alex! One more thing I would like to ask you. How can I confirm if I could set up the cron job correctly without telnet access?
Alex, I could confirm the wget's transaction in an access log. You don't need to answer my stupid question.
