Cron Problem

[local1]

Hello

I'm having a small problem with my cron i run phpnuke site and i added this line in the command section

>get http://[edited for content]/modules/MS_Analysis/include/cronmaintenance.php > /dev/null

and i keep getting email saying

>/bin/sh: line 1: command not found

something to that affect i just deleted the lastone i got but in subject line i saw something like this <robert@[edited for content]>server4 blah blah guess i will have to wait for the next update to see what it said. just wondering if anyone might have a clue what i am missing? Thanks.

 

Edit: Edited out site name due to content.

Welcome to the forums, local1!

 

The command should be set up in a cron job like this:

>GET http://www.my-TCH-site.com/modules/MS_Analysis/include/cronmaintenance.php > /dev/null

I tried using a GET command like the one above in a cron job on my account and I received the same error you did (/bin/sh: line 1: GET: command not found). The above is an alternate version of the following command, which does work on my account:

>lwp-request -m GET http://www.my-TCH-site.com/modules/MS_Analysis/include/cronmaintenance.php > /dev/null

Try that one and see if it works better for you.
