Crontab wont run my php jobs.
Im trying to run a crontab job on a PHP-file.
it looks like this
0 * * * * /usr/bin/php -q /c/killboard/cron/cron_import.php
the problem is that it wont run the job. If i go to the directory and do it manually (./cron_import.php) it works..
Anyone got any idea? Wrong path the the PhP exec?

- Works for me, using this:
$ cat /etc/cron.d/nabaztag
# weekdays, wake at 8am, sleep at 11:30pm
10 8 * * mon-fri root /root/nabaztag.php wake &>/dev/null
30 23 * * mon-fri root /root/nabaztag.php sleep &>/dev/null
$ head -n2 /root/nabaztag.php
#!/usr/bin/php
<? - One thing to keep in mind when having things run from cron is that the profile for the users is not normally run so any extra environment variables or additions to the path are not available. On my ReadyNAS PRO while running things through cron the only directories on the path are /usr/bin and /bin.
Are there any things in the php script that need to be executed that are found via the path or other environment variable?
