CRON Job

The software needs cron jobs to automate tasks like checking account statuses, managing escrow, auction, monitoring subscriptions, and renewing user perks.

How to create CRON job:

Step 1:

Here's how to set up the CRON job:

Step-by-step instructions:

• Open Terminal: Access the terminal or command-line interface provided by your hosting platform.

• cPanel users: If you're using cPanel, you can bypass the terminal. Go to the Cron Jobs section and paste the instruction from Step 3 directly there.

Step 2: Execute the command crontab -e in your terminal.

crontab -e

Step 3: Insert cron job to automate escrow every minute. Ensure to replace YOURWEBSITE DOMAIN PATH with your specific domain path:

* * * * * /usr/local/bin/php /home/YOURDOMAINPATH/artisan schedule:run >> /dev/null 2>&1

Step 4: (If using terminal): To view all local cron jobs, enter the command:

crontab -l

Step 5: If configuring through cPanel, the setup should resemble the following. Select the smallest available time interval provided by your hosting service, ideally every 1 minute if supported. Adjust YOURDOMAINPATH accordingly, ensuring it includes your hosting username as specified in your directory.
