I am using Ubuntu 14.04 X64.
I am setting up a basic Cron job with crontab -e:
* * * * * /usr/bin/php /var/www/html/test/test.php >> /var/www/cron/cron.log
This is /var/www/html/test/test.php:
<?php
include "../test2.php";
?>
And /var/www/html/test2.php:
<?php
echo "hello world";
?>
And yet nothing is being echoed. But when I go to [domain]/test/test.php, I do see "hello world" being echoed. Why am I not seeing it in /var/www/cron/cron.log?
PHP and cronjobs can be a mess - especially when including other files. Try the following in your crontab:
* * * * * cd /var/www/html/test; /usr/bin/php test.php >> /var/www/cron/cron.log
Try including the full path in the php include, and make it require instead of a include:
<?php
require_once("/var/www/html/test2.php");
?>
You can also set your include path: http://php.net/manual/en/function.set-include-path.php
__DIR__ . '/../test2.php';Why don't use absolute path in the include?
<?php
include __DIR__ . '/../test2.php';
?>
you write a wrong directory in cron
/usr/bin/php /var/www/**html**/test/test.php
in test.php
/var/www/test/test.php
in www directory have a html directory?
