Using Cron Job to process PHP scripts.
For example, we have test.php and want to run it every day using cron job.
1) test.php
<?php
echo '<h1> This is a test for cron job</h1>';
?>
2) Create a shell script test.sh
#! /bin/sh
#wget -q --no-check-certificate -O- "http://swf.site40.net/crontest/test.php"
php test.php
3) run following in shell to make test.sh executable
chmod +x test.sh
4) The reason we want to use php instead of wget is that we do want outside people access test.php
Set up .htaccess to Deny from all in the directory of test.sh
<Files "*">
Order deny, allow
Deny from all
</Files>
5) crontab -e
30 23 * * * /home/jiansenl/crontest/test.sh
each night 23:30pm to run test.sh
6) crontab -l
list cron jobs.
