I have run into trouble with Cron Job set up. I have followed all the instructions but get an incorrect passphrase error message when the job executes. Also, when I send a test mail from the server settings page, I get the following error message:
SMTP connect() failed. https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/wiki/Troubleshooting
Additional screen shot.

I have fixed the problem with sending the test mail but still cannot get the Cron Job to work. I changed the Secure Cron Job Key to the Easy Cron API Token. See the screen shot. Still doesn't work.

Hey there,

You can have a look at our documentation about it. https://stackideas.com/docs/easyblog/administrators/cronjobs/cronjobs-cpanel

Can you provide us with your cpanel access so that we can have a better check of the current configuration of your cronjob?

When I was trying to access your backend, it will give me the following error:


Warning

I have managed to fix the problem. The Easy Cron call up URL needs to include the Easy Cron API key which also must be inserted in Easy Blog configuration.

Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.

Yes, if you got set secure cronjob key for Easyblog then your cronjob url have to included this secure key as well.

For example :

[gist type="php"]
http://domain.com/index.php?option=com_easyblog&task=cron&phrase=yourSecureKey
[/gist]
