Hello!

I have a problem with the cron jobs not working. I set up the cron jobs as per the tutorial provided by you, and I tried two types of settings:
/bin/wget -O /dev/null "http://www.eslrok.com/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cron";
and 2) without the bin/wget part also.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but I get an email every 5 minutes sent to my admin account, saying 'permission denied' -- how can I grant permission? I've checked the documentation on my server and there is no help anywhere. Any advice would be welcomed.

Thanks for your support,
Ben
Hello Ben,

You are getting the "Permission Denied" error most likely because your hosting provider does not allow you to launch "wget" in a cron environment. You need to check with your hosting provider and request them to allow you to run wget in cron.
