Make sure you have the permissions to run cron jobs on your server. ask your hosting. also make sure you are not on a Windows server, the cron job on unix based systems only. on Windows servers you can use the schedualted task program for this.

The output screen should show like this:

Installing Auctions Auto Processing Daemon

Cron Command:
0 * * * * /home/httpd/vhosts/mehtag.com/cgi-bin/mazad/AutoProcess.cgi a29cxiluyhklhkjh

Issuing Command:
crontab /home/httpd/vhosts/mehtag.com/cgi-bin/mazad/data/AutoProcess.txt


Checking your cron jobs...
Issuing crontab -l
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall.
# (/home/httpd/vhosts/domain.com/cgi-bin/auction/data/AutoProcess.txt installed on Fri Jul 30 02:16:12 2004)
# (Cron version -- $Id: crontab.c,v 2.13 1994/01/17 03:20:37 vixie Exp $)
0 * * * * /home/httpd/vhosts/domain.com/cgi-bin/auction/AutoProcess.cgi a29cxiluyhklhkjh


Done...



note the result after "Checking your cron jobs... "

Hey Marty.... If your not using a Windows server basically you don't have to edit any files. You will find under the Auctions Manager a link for Auto Processing. All you have to do is enter the required information as to when you would like cron processing and the software does the rest once you submit it. If you want to change anything you would do it in the auto processing menu again.

If you are receiving errors or your cron jobs are not working and you are not on a windows server then your ISP or your Server does not support cron jobs or is not allowing you to use them. You may have to ask them to allow you access or obtain the proper permissions for your server.

Man I wish someone could help me with my password issue! cry
