getting cron.php errors was created by Helen
Hi
I've set up the Cron job to run on the server for the email reminder service but am getting the following 6 errors
Any ideas how to sort then out as they are making little sense to me?
/components/com_osservicesbooking/cron.php: line 1: ?php
: No such file or directory
/components/com_osservicesbooking/cron.php: line 2: /*
: No such file or directory
/components/com_osservicesbooking/cron.php: line 10: */
: No such file or directory
/components/com_osservicesbooking/cron.php: line 11: //: is a directory
/components/com_osservicesbooking/cron.php: line 12: syntax error near unexpected token `('
/components/com_osservicesbooking/cron.php: line 12: `// defined('_JEXEC') or die; '

Hi Helen,
I am not sure how to setup Cron job on your hosting, but normally, the format of cron job in almost hosting is:
php real_path_to_joomla_site/components/com_osservicesbooking/cron.php
Thanks
Dam

You might consider a webcron service like easycron.com which will load
www.website.com/components/com_osservicesbooking/cron.php
at a given time.

Thanks but once my webhosting company (United Hosting) updated the path to find the cron job it all works great - and no charge either so no complaints from me!
Thanks anyway though
