    i have hosting with digiweb. i'm trying to schedule a script with crontab and i can't figure it out. i must have tried dozens of variations at this stage.

    this is the system they use to enter the command:
    http://hosting.digiweb.ie/docs/hsphere/userguide/direct_access_to_server.php


    what i've been putting in is:

    all time entries:*

    that means "every minute, every hour etc", doesn't it? i've tried loads of different variations on that too


    the command i've entered is:
    /usr/bin/php -q /hsphere/local/home/username/domain.net/test.php

    i got that from a digiweb support guy so i'm assuming its right

    at the moment i'm just running a test script that creates a file. is there some reason a script thats being called through crnotab would be denied permission? the script works if i call it directly


    can someone who knows a bit about it or has a digiweb account tell me what i'm doing wrong?
