Question

I just wanted someone to check this cron code for me, and let me know where to type it so that it will run on my website:

0 23,59 ? * MON-SUN http://mywebsite.com/phpscript.php 

run at 11:59pm every day

0 23,59 ? * MON http://mywebsite.com/phpscript.php 

run at 11:59pm on monday of every week

0 23,59 ? * 1 1-12 http://mywebsite.com/phpscript.php 

run at 11:59pm on the first of every month

Would this code work? The command being run is the request to that webpage which would run that script.

Answer 1

No.

To get you started, the following cron entry will run every day at 11:59pm.

59 23 * * * wget http://mywebsite.com/phpscript.php

I’d strongly encourage you to read a tutorial.
