Cron job does not work!
Reported by Yoboy | August 7th, 2008 @ 12:28 PM | in 1.1
I have tried and tried to get the automatic cron job to work with wp-o-matic with NO LUCK! Any help would be fantastic. I am using WP-o-Matic 1.0RC4-6. I have setup the campaigns and it tells me to run the cron to add the line - http://www.{mydomain}.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/wp-o-matic/cron.php?code=ad4f3f12
I have done all this. When I run this from my cron it tells me file cannot be found. When I run it from a browser is seems to run fine by returning a blank page. The only issue is that the CRON never ran, even when I directly access it does not update the last active date in the control panel.
If I remove the code= from the end of the url, I thought I would get an error, but I don't. Same white page.
How can I fix this? HELP!!! Thank you.

Okay, now when I run the cron manually it tells me "Running cron job". When i check the log it says the same thing, but nothing updated and the last process campaigns date/time didn't change. If I hit the Fetch for the campaign, it appears to work fine. Here are the logs after hitting fetch -

August 7, 8:36:05 am - Processing campaign Travel Warnings (ID: 1)

How do I get the Cron to do this automatically??

In wpomatic.php I changed line 447
$campaigns = $this->getCampaigns('unparsed=1');to this
$campaigns = $this->getCampaigns();Crons work fine now.

I have the same issue, I'll change the code and report back if things still don't work.
