even i set a cron, it doesnt seem to work?
Please can you take a look at the cpanel cron settings?
Hello Dennis,
Yes, nothing will happen if you make an update. Because the correct file name is cron.php which will get updated when you update Easyblog. But in your case, the file is renamed to ebcron.php and your cronjob is calling this file instead of the cron.php. You can leave it as it is.
I've made some changes with your cron command inside your cpanel. However the minimum time for each cronjob to run is 30 minutes on your server hence the cron will be processed slower. Can you verify it for me after some time and see if the cron is working correctly?
It seems like your server does not accept wget as a main path for your cronjob. I've change the command to use php file command instead that pointing to your /components/com_easyblog/cron.php and everything is working correctly now. I've checked your email activities at your easyblog backend and some of the emails are getting processed now, http://screencast.com/t/wvgN3KiZo .
I am really sorry for the delay of this reply. It seems like there are some translation on your blog url where the link in email notification is not get translated correctly. I've applied some fix inside your /administrator/components/com_easyblog/includes/post/post.php and the link should get generated correctly for your new blog post later.
From what I see Nik did on your site I believe there is no need to edit the file or cron as this cron is automatically connect both cron and cronfeed at the same time.
Seems like you just updated your easyblog to latest version and overwrite your cron.php to its original state. I have fix this by creating the same cron.php file on your site with ebcron.php as the name and adjust your cron command to use this file instead so it will never get updated for every update on your site.
It should be working fine now. Please have a look after every cron execution on your site.
I've temporary published my test feed and waited for 30 minutes for the cron to execute. After cron has executed, the feed gets imported: http://screencast.com/t/x6jIQEcsicP . Am missing anything?
I've tested the import and it gets imported when I execute the cron manually through URL. I can't debug any further since there is no new post from the feed URL. Can you please monitor when there is new post from that feed URL, let me know.
if you changed anything then it doesnt work of cause anyway.
You can delete the feed history for example to test it again. I spent so much time because of this issue that the cron doesnt work... please find a solution. Thanks
I've made a test for the latest post from this feed URL: Immonewsfeed.de which is this post: http://screencast.com/t/chQtL2fHeL . This is what I did:
1. Delete the feed history for that particular item
2. Delete that previously imported post in Easyblog
3. Wait for the cronjob to run
4. Once the cron is executed, the post is succesfully imported: http://screencast.com/t/ms4y5H7D
To prove this, I've deleted the feed history and the post in Easyblog once again so that you can see it gets imported once the cron executed.
It won't be in the updated version is because every site will have different sitename in that file. Your ebcron.php is only for your site. If you open the file, you can see the sitename variable is your domain. This file cannot use the override method because this is not theme file.
As i made the update, the ebcron file was still there. So nothing happens if i make an update?
I noticed, that i need to delete or rename the cron.php file, is that correct?
