Hi,

I'm configuring a php script to run with a cronjob but I don't know the php location.

Could you help me to write a correct path?

Thanks.

Base
/home/USERNAME/web/DOMAIN/public_html/

Example
/home/admin/web/domain.com/public_html/wordpress/cron.php

For my example I am using a domain under my vesta cp admin username. The script is located at domain.com/wordpress/cron.php

Hi,

Thanks for your help.

My question is about the php path. Something like this - /usr/local/bin/php but I receive an email message with permission denied.

I usualy use this example in a shared server:
/usr/local/bin/php -f /home/username/public_html/cron/cron.php

Thanks

For example

Hi, i had the same issue with when setting up, you can use an external cronjob service like: https://www.easycron.com to run the cron jobs.
Hope the helps.
