Hello there,  
  
After installing the cronjobs as per the documentation, I get those error messages everytime a command is triggered:

Quote:

DoctrineDBALExceptionDriverException: An exception occured in driver: could not find driver (uncaught exception) at /var/www/mysite/mautic/vendor/doctrine/dbal/lib/Doctrine/DBAL/Driver/AbstractMySQLDriver.php

  
I have not idea what this is...My phpinfo() shows I have PDO and pdo\_mysql enabled with the drivers "mysql" and "sqlite".  
Please help.  
  
MORE INFO:  
This is what i see inside phpinfo():  
PDO Driver for MySQL enabled  
Client API version mysqlnd 5.0.11-dev - 20120503 - $Id: SOME\_HASH\_HERE $

Alright, fixed it.  
It looks like I have two php versions installed, one for apache, one for the php cli. And of course, pdo\_mysql was enabled for apache only, and the cronjob use the CLI. So I had to activate pdo\_mysql for the cli.
