Apfelstrudel Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Hello, we have a managed server with php 5.6 and php7 available. That's perfect. But today we found out that crons can only be executed with php 5.5 max. We contacted our provider regarding this issue and they told me that using CLI only php5.5 is possible and they have no plans for the near future (or maybe they don't tell me them yet). They suggested to use wget for executing crons. Is there any way to start the ipb tasks using wget? I'm just asking because .14 will be the last release supporting php5.5.

Nathan Explosion Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 "Use Web Service" instead of "Use Cron" and there is your URL to call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apfelstrudel Posted July 27, 2016 Author Share Posted July 27, 2016 Thanks. Final question: Do I have to activate "web service" as well? BTW: Does anybody have the correct wget call? Which parameters do you suggest for using wget? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the command is simply wget theurlthatisprovidedintheACP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
