Howdy,
I am running:
WAMP
Joomla 3.5.1
PHP 5.6
Easy Discuss 3.2.9744 (On my production environment) and 4.0.5 (on my development environment)
Being on windows I am using the following scheduled task to run the "cron" job.
"C:/mydir/chrome.exe" "http://www.mydomain.com/index.php?option=com_easydiscuss&task=cron";
This is failing to send and notifications (new or existing). I have developed a significant backlog in the last week and a half since this command has not be functioning.
I have tried updating the component in my development environment to version 4.0.5, since I was unable to save my changes receiving a 500 error. I have discovered a bug in the email parser settings with version 4.0.5. I have supplied a username of "something@somethingelse.com" and it submits to my email server "somthingsomthingelse.com", it had removed the @ symbol, making my user account on my mail server unable to log in. It appeared to strip any special characters I submitted. This was from the "Test Connection" button.
To work around this I went to the database table to manually update the changes I needed which included updating the type from IMAP to POP3, updating the password (which is un-encrypted by the way), and updating the email server address. These tests are kind of successful, but when I load the settings page it shows my IMAP still, I assume this is a page load default since the setting in the database still reads (main_email_parser_service="pop3").
When manually loading the url I get this response, "Email batch process finished."
Are there some additional steps to accomplish this cron job in Windows?
My troubleshooting efforts have resolved a couple of issues but I am now stuck, and my team is getting a lot of internal pressure to bring this back up.
Any help would be much appreciated, thank you for your time.
Cheers,
Riley
