Hi forum members, I am facing an issue where cron job for "Apply Payments to Open Invoices" is stuck. It takes several hours to complete. I have searched forum and found similiar posts and most of them are unresolved. Whatever suggestions were given there I have tried, such as checking pending tasks, logs, changing PHP version, etc. Nothing worked. If I run cron man manually via cli or blesta GUI, it works, and "There are one or more cron tasks that have been executing for more than 60 minutes." error is gone, but it comes back after a while. I can see a loading sign in front of "Apply Payments to Open Invoices" cron job and last run time is 1:05 PM, while I am writing this post at 3:17 PM. I am facing this issue for a few days. Any sort of help would be very apricated. I am running the latest blesta and PHP7.3. I have tried with PHP7.4 also.

Im on blesta 30 day trials. my cron job is not running unless i press the button manually. i did some google and i found some weird things: 1. i notice that others forumer posted their cron command is something like this: */5 * * * * /usr/bin/php /home/username/public_html/billing/index.php cron, but my format is something like this: */5 * * * * /usr/bin/php C:\Inetpub\vhosts\domain.com\sub.domain.com\index.php cron weird no? 2. the cron job is not running every 5 min unless i press the button manually. 3. i try to use the cron key and goto https://sub.domain.com/cron/?cron_key=PUT_HERE_CRON_KEY, this is the format i found on internet, but i no have the cron folder? can someone help me up here?

Hello - I am having a little bit of an issue properly configuring Cron to run via Control Panel. If I run it manually from the dashboard it is able to run fine, however after working with Support from my Hosting provider, we tried setting it up last night and it never ran today. This is the requirements via CP: - In case you use a PHP cron script, please set its first line to: #!/usr/local/bin/php.cli - You must set read and execute permissions (like 775) to your script, to be able to run it. - The script must be saved with Unix-style end-of-lines. - Any script output will be sent to the specified e-mail address, if the option is enabled. No e-mail is sent when you run the script manually. - A script can be added only once. - A single crontab job can be run maximum four times per hour. They only allow it to run every 15 minutes, and rightfully so since I am on a Shared Hosting plan, but following their instructions since this seems to be a little bit of a different setup from any documentation I could find, I am a little perplexed to say the least. I had added the "#!/usr/local/bin/php.cli" to Line 1 of the index.php file inside the root Blesta directory, changed its permissions to 775. Then from the Crontab I have it pointing to this file and set it to run every 15 minutes but to no avail. What am I missing here? Thanks.
