Hi,
I need a guide how to setup crontab the manual way. I know, that there help page, but this is very old and I can’t find the mentioned things in config or processque (it’s about 10 years old).
I don’t understand, if you have to put the in the commandline (putty with my host) a instruction or in config.php something.?
All guides made it worse, because they are all using different aproaches.
Here is my settings:
I have managed server and want to limit the mails to 150 per Hour with 1 second between the messages.
The cronjob should be executed every hour. In about a week, the newsletter is sent fully.
Now I tell you, what my managed server does support:
PHP 4.4.9 (cgi-fcgi)
Copyright © 1997-2008 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v1.3.0, Copyright © 1998-2004 Zend Technologies
Now I need to know, how can I configure cronjob like statet without using cPanel (which I’m not using anyway) or without signing to some cronjobing service including phplist.org too…
I need know, what kind of a file I have to create (or need to a create file??) and what kind of instuction I have write in putty to let the executable to execute and which software you recommendend like putty…or how you did it.
If you need more help, please tell me.
Thanks
EDIT:
I found a now the official website for Cron Jobs, which is indeed new. Will take a look and then tell you, if I need help or not. Official Cron Job help page is: https://www.phplist.org/manual/ch036_setting-up-your-cron.xhtml
