**Your software** My Mautic version is: 4.0.1 My PHP version is: 7.4 My Database type and version is: MySQL 8+ **Your problem** My problem is: Cron Jobs is not recording events in log of any job performed. Is there a log in Mautic to show that cron job was process sucessfully? These errors are showing in the log: No error shown Steps I have tried to fix the problem: I compressed a duplicate copy of software and database then move it to a testing server with similar specification. The testing server are able to process and update the segment but the production server at first gave off permission error then I change the cron job string and now it a blank log … THere is nothing record and the log is cleared every time cron job is executed. Permission error was caused by using just “php” string so when I replace it with relative path string “/usr/local/bin/php -q”. no more permission error but the segment is not update and the log is blanked out every time cron job is executed. Any idea what I may be doing wrong? ---

It executes but record nothing /usr/local/bin/php - executes but nothing is logged /usr/local/bin/ea-php74 - executes but nothing is logged php - executes but give 500 error in log I think this server php bin aer set tighter than a frog’s anal and there’re something in the script it doesn’t like. ---

add -vvv to your cron for verbose logging. You can enable debugging by marking debug = true in your local.php file ---

We managed to narrow it down to a memory error and got it working again! Thank you everyone!
