JoomlaPlug!

Hello,

I am trying to get rid of core files that keep coming up in my root joomla instalations.

I have now found your program jcron scheduler. Till now I delited them with putty with the comand line
rm -f /home/tvzebra0/www/susiundstrolchi/core.1*

susiundstrolchi is the rootdirectory where joomla is installed.

If I use the same comand line it doesnt work. If I use
rm -f /core.1*
or
rm -f core.1*

it doesnt work either.
Do you have an Idea what else I can try?

Kind Regards,
Chris

Is the function exec() enabled on your php system? if it's not, that might be the reason of why JCron is unable to run it properly

How do I find out if it is enabled?

THX Chris

Check your site phpinfo() output, and look in the disabled functions area, if it's listed there then it's not enabled

Hi Ovidiu,

the reply from my server people was:
The exec() is enabled by default on cPanel servers, utilizing suPHP, or Suexec depending.
Such is the case with your server....
....Just make sure the scripts have the correct ownership and permissions,
Please advise of any further questions, or issues.

Do have another Idea?

Kind Regards,
Chris

The correct command you would need to use in the JCron manager is the

rm -f /home/tvzebra0/www/susiundstrolchi/core.1*

you need to indicate full paths for the process to take place properly

Also, JCron will run only if you have frontend activity!

Post here a screenshot if your JCron manager to see if i can spot any other issues
