This is my php file i search for 2 days now i understand 2 things first is i need to put

#!/usr/bin/php -q 

at the top (honestly don’t know why) and i need to connect to my webserver open the shell and write the cron code like

MAILTO=[e-mail],[e-mail]
0 2 1-10 * * du -h --max-depth=1 /

is it all than cron will work or something that i am missing? thanks for patiance and time.

Answer 1

#!/usr/bin/php -q tells your server that this script should be run with php.

The cron code which you add to crontab will run your script at the specified intervals.

But that’s not all. Your script uses $_POST, but you cannot post to a PHP script if you run it as a cron job. So those values won’t be available.
