If you have access to the server logs, look in the cron job log (typically /var/log/cron). If you don’t see an error warning in the ACP it’s fine.

galenb Posted May 22 Author Share Posted May 22 Yeah! Dreamhost doesn't give you access to the cron logs. I see the attached in admincp->System->Settings->Advanced Configuration on the Server Environment tab. And when you click on the View Tasks link the dates don't seem to be changing. This is a very low volume site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Calvert Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 If you are set to use cron jobs, if the task is not running… there will be a big warning shown on the front page of your ACP. galenb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
