Set up cronjobs on other server

General Discussion

Hi there!

I just started with mautic and it’s easy setup. All looks well and I am exited to send out my first campaign.

However, I have a small problem with the cron jobs. As my webhost doesn’t support it, and I have just renewed my subscription (if I only knew…) I am looking for a new way to implement these in my setup.

I have found the site cron-job.org wich seems to do the job (no limits whatsoever) but i have to point to a weblink?

Wich link do I have to use and how do I add a cronjob that way?

Thanks in advance and keep up the good work!

If you have shell access, and you know how to write a bash script (with the required cronjobs) that can be accessed+executed by the webserver user (php or httpd or www-data … see it yourself if you can chown/chmod it), maybe you could write such a PHP script, limit it to be accessed only by cron-job.org, and use it.

Or maybe Mautic is already webcron-ready, I don’t know. But if it’s not, the paragraph above may suit you.

Best,

I’m not sure if this is applicable (and how it works), but you might take a look at https://cronfig.io/
