Carole Asselin Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 As I am still testing the gallery on a test site, today, when I logged in, I was welcomed with this big red notification stating: Maintenance Tasks Not Running Routine maintenance tasks are performed as users access the site but it looks like the traffic to your community is not sufficient to run these tasks on time. This will cause significant damage to your community if not resolved. It is recommended that you set up a cron or a web service so that these tasks can be run even when there isn't any traffic coming to your community. What does that mean? of course there isn't much traffic as it is a test environment. What do I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carole Asselin Posted August 25, 2022 Author Share Posted August 25, 2022 Hum... I guess I will have to ask for help as I don't know what that is. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Chris Anderson Posted August 25, 2022 Solution Share Posted August 25, 2022 Copy the highlighted value below into your cron job: You can also use a third-party web service like cron-job.org which is free. You just type the value into the url field and choose a 1-minute schedule. Be sure to save the settings in the ACP prior to starting a cron job or use a web service. Verify that the tasks are running every minute after setting up either type of service. Joey_M and Carole Asselin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The code will not be the same for you, it varies by server. ACP > System > Settings > Advanced Configuration > Task Method "When this setting is enabled you MUST ensure that the cron is set up properly. If this setting is turned on but no cron is set up it will cause significant damage to your site." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
