A cron task runs a command on a schedule. Use the exact command and frequency supported by your application.
Steps
- Open Cron Jobs in Domatic Control Panel.
- Enter the schedule and the application command, using the correct absolute paths and supported PHP executable if applicable.
- Configure where task output should go so failures can be noticed.
- Save the task and confirm its next run in the application or log. Disable an obsolete task when it is no longer required.
Good to know
Avoid duplicate jobs or schedules so frequent that runs overlap. Server timezone and your local timezone may differ. Do not put passwords in visible command arguments or run a copied command you do not understand.
