How to add a cron job

You can add a cron job in FASTPANEL. Open the Control section -> Scheduler.

When using Ispmanager: the Main menu -> Scheduler

If you need to run a console script, use the following command:

cd /var/www/USER_NAME/data/www/SITE_NAME/; /usr/bin/php -f cron.php
  • USER_NAME is the website's owner.
  • SITE_NAME is the site name.
  • cron.php - the name of the script to launch.

If you run the script from the browser:

/usr/bin/wget -O /dev/null "http://site.com/cron.php?start=1"
  • site.com is your site address.
  • cron.php is your script name.
  • ?start=1 is a GET request parameter with the value 1 if the script requires specifying these parameters.
