Login to your cPanel and navigate to Cron jobs

Add the following settings :

setup-cron-job

wget -q -O- http://yourdomain.com/crm/cron/index

Change the url according to your base url

  • Eq. if its on root domain you need to type only http://yourdomain.com/cron/index
  • Eq. on subfolder /crm you will need to type http://yourdomain.com/crm/cron/index

Cron is required to be setup for KreativKollectiv CRM if you want all features to works as expected.

NOTE: This is CRON Job URL and not path. Your server needs to support wget command to call the wget command and execute.

Common issues

My server does not support wget command?

If your server does not support wget command you try one of the following commands:

php /home/username/public_html/installation_folder/index.php cron/index >> /dev/null

php /home/username/public_html/installation_folder/index.php cron/index

If that doesn’t work, it probably means you don’t have the package php5-cli installed. On debian / ubuntu you can install this package as follows:

sudo apt-get install php5-cli

If you are not able to install packages, you can specify your path to php try the following command:

/usr/local/bin/php -f /home/username/public_html/installation_folder/index.php cron index

Replace username and installation_folder to fit for your path.

If none of commands are not working you can use some free cron job service like https://www.easycron.com. Mostly the free cron job services have limit to execute each 10 minutes but it will work good too with KreativKollectiv CRM.
