Hello!
I installed atrocore with PHP 8.4 and apache server , but I always have error with crontab
I defined a cron like properly (I have only deprecated php message).
Could you help me please?
but there are always problem
Hello,
Thank you for the details. The PHP deprecation messages are harmless. What matters is that cron starts the background processes (daemons) of AtroCore. Please check the following steps. Your installation will not run jobs until these processes are running.
1. Check the PHP version used by the command line
AtroCore needs PHP 8.4. The version used by Apache can differ from the one used by cron.
php -v which php
The first command must show 8.4.x. If php is a different version, use the full path of the 8.4 binary in the crontab, for example /usr/bin/php8.4.
2. Install the crontab for the web server user
The crontab must belong to the web server user (www-data on Debian/Ubuntu), not to root.
sudo crontab -e -u www-data
Add this single line and replace the project path with yours:
-
-
-
-
- /usr/bin/php /var/www/my-atrocore-project/console.php cron
-
-
-
Use absolute paths, and keep the word cron at the end. Save and close the editor. Check that it was saved:
sudo crontab -l -u www-data
3. Run the command once by hand as the same user
This shows the real error if there is one:
sudo -u www-data /usr/bin/php /var/www/my-atrocore-project/console.php cron
It should end without errors.
Please also make sure that exec is not listed in disable_functions in that file. AtroCore uses exec to start its daemons.
4. Check that the daemons are running
Wait one or two minutes after saving the crontab, then run:
ps -aux | grep php
You should see lines like these (the last word is the application ID of your installation):
www-data … php console.php daemon pt www-data … php console.php daemon job-manager www-data … php console.php daemon composer
If job-manager and pt are in the list, everything is working. If nothing appears, cron is not running the command. Check that the cron service is active and whether it logs an error:
sudo systemctl status cron grep CRON /var/log/syslog | tail
5. Common reasons it does not start
- The crontab was created for root, or with a wrong project path.
- The CLI uses an older PHP version than 8.4.
- The files in the project folder do not belong to the web server user, so it cannot write to
data/orpublic/data/(make sure this folder exists). Fix it withsudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/my-atrocore-project. - A system update is running or was interrupted. In that case the file public/data/composer.log exists, and the cron command stops silently until the update has finished. Check with
ls public/data/composer.log.
If it still does not work, please send us:
- the output of
php -v,sudo crontab -l -u www-dataandps -aux | grep php, - the exact error message (a screenshot is fine), and
- the last lines of
data/logs/in the project folder.
Best regards
ok now the cron is nice because I put php8.4 in the command line.
But I’ve got this 500message error few minutes after launching export feed in json:
