Topic: Cron Job Problem

I was just wondering if my cron job problem is related to a path problem? 

In most cases, a webhost has a public_html folder and all website information would be entered in folders under that public_html folder.  As an example, the luxcalendar application would be in a folder set up as follows:

public_html/luxcal/

On the webhost that I am running lux calendar, there is no public_html folder, so the lux calender application is set up as follows:

/luxcal/

In looking at the lcalcron.php file, is it possible that the paths are set up based on the lux cal being in the public_html/luxcal/ folder and that is why it is failing?  I don't know enough about this to tell but thought it was worth a post.

Re: Cron Job Problem

I know what you are referring to. The path for my site is /home/content/40/5928640/html which is a shared Linux Hosting plan.

I do understand Schwartz's point. If the lcalcron runs by hand from your browser it should from the remote.

Re: Cron Job Problem

That's what everyone is saying, but in my case it is not working and I keep getting the same failed error.
