hey all i set cron jobs when i installed my site like dolphin told me to. and now for some reason I'm getting this in my email box can anyone tell me why or suggest how to fix it ?.

/bin/sh: line 0: cd: /home/your-account/public_html/periodic: No such file or directory
Could not open input file: cron.php

this suggest there is no such file am i right ? but there should be in the install i assume. thanks for any help or suggestions you can provide here.

also i think i have the cron jobs messed up as it seems i cant send out mass emails from admin any help would be great thanks .

Bump

What did you enter for your cron job?

Go to inc/header.inc.php (server only) and copy the '$dir['root'] address (see below) to your Cron path. D7 doesn't always get the path right.

$dir['root']               = "/home/admin/xxxxx/xxxx.com/public_html/";
$dir['inc']                = "{$dir['root']}inc/";
$dir['profileImage']       = "{$dir['root']}media/images/profile/";

/bin/sh: line 0: cd: /home/your-account/public_html/periodic: No such file or directory
Could not open input file: cron.php

You could go into your shell (I use putty http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html) and enter..

cd /home/your-account/public_html/periodic

to make sure the path is correct. I assume you don't actually have "your-account" in there? if so it is defo wrong. you should

replace "your-account" with your domain. For example; mine is...

cd /home/vhosts/*******.com/httpdocs/periodic; /usr/bin/php -q cron.php

This shouldn't be effecting your mass emails. Your path to sendmail is probably set wrong.

Hope this helps!

If all else fails PM me and I will happily log into your server and sort it for you.

this is what is in my cron job settings.

cd /home/your-account/public_html/periodic; /usr/local/bin/php -q cron.php

ok i did change my your-account part of this line to my site name .com i will reply and see if this has helped in a few

still no luck here also will this stop my videos working as there not working anymore also. they upload fine and stay at the pending stage. audio uploads fine songs and such. if anyone can help me out here i would very much appreciate it.
