There are different command line programs you can use to call the page from the command line. Not all of them may be available on a given server.
For example, you can use a Unix utility like 'wget':
wget -q -nd --delete-after 'ADD the CRON URL HERE'
The options:-q = quiet (no message)-nd = no directory--delete-after = delete the downloaded file
Same with log filewget -q -nd --delete-after 'ADD the CRON URL HERE' -O /home/public_html/cache/dull
When using SSL, add one additional argument when calling wget: --no-check-certificate.Do not put “--no-check-certificate” between the -0 and the -.
*/15 * * * * /usr/bin/wget --no-check-certificate --quiet -O - 'ADD the CRON URL HERE'
Note in this example that the output is thrown away (to /home/public_html/cache/dull ).
A number of users of jNews have found that 'wget' sometimes fails. Especially if you have trouble with email digests not being sent on a daily basis to all users, an alternative command that solves the problem is:
php 'ADD the CRON URL HERE'
If you want a schedule every 10 minutes define as below:
Minute: */10Hour: *Day of Month: *Month: *Day of Week: *
Command: /usr/bin/curl -s -o /dev/null "ADD the CRON URL HERE"Important are the quotes around the URL. Otherwise all looks perfect but mail will never be send.
