 Posted: Sun Jul 18, 2004 9:30 am Post subject: Running cron.php manually, Error 500 |
 |
|
Hey guys. I've been bashing my head on things lately trying to figure this out. I have auctions executed on my site, and I can't quite get the whole cronjob within windows thing that I've read about on here. I tried setting up Windows to run the file as suggested, but it keeps giving me password errors and etc. That, and it just opens the file for editing anyway.
So, I was told I can manually run my PhpAuction cron.php script by just typing it into my browser. I tried that, but I keep getting an Error 500.
I would post the code here, but I don't want to do that until someone tells me they need it. Saves space, and I can't link to it, because when you try to right click, save as, and download it, it just times out when fetching the file.
I did, however, make a zip file of the cron.php script if you'd like to download that. I'd appreciate any help, and I'm sorry if this is a stupid question. :( I'm just really new at this type of stuff. |

I don't know the script you are using, etc. but if you run cron with a web browser and there is no information to display to the screen you will get a 500 error even if it "works" from the scripts point of view.
Can you tell if whatever you are updating is updated after you run PhpAuction cron.php?
Regards,

PhpAuction is the script I'm using and, unfortunately, no, it's not updating anything. This cron is supposed to check my auction database and remove the closed auctions off the front page of my auction site so that it doesn't crowd up. It's also supposed to remove it from the list of "active auctions", but it's not doing this. So, now I have a lot of closed auctions still mingling with the current auctions. :( |

Juxissa,
Are other PHP scripts working correctly on your system?
