I need to set a cron job to basically sent out an email dynamically based on results from a query. I'm using Sch. Tasks with windows, but do not want to.
I have a .php file already created that does the query and sending the email....so now all I need is the cron piece.
I've read several tutorials on this, but I can't seem to find out how to set it up on a remote server. I can't remote in either.
I would need the cron job to run dailey at like 2:00 a.m. The server is a windows server that runs php.
to edit your cron just type 'crontab -e' There should be a help file too to tell you what the syntax for the frequency of the job. I have cron jobs running at work but I dont quite remember what values go where to set it up.
