    <p>I have several PHP files to be run by cron. I set up the crons using command-</p> <pre><code>crontab crontab.txt </code></pre> <p>Inside the crontab.txt file, I have written cron commands like this:-</p> <pre><code>#(Updating tutor activities) - every minute * * * * * /usr/bin/wget -O - -q -t 1 http://project/cron/tutor_activities.php </code></pre> <p>But none of the functionalities are working (database queries, sending reminder mails etc.). Running the URLs manually works. </p> <p>Then I put my mail address in <code>MAILTO</code> and received the mails. In the mail, I received entire HTML source of the page. What is expected in the mail? Why are my functionalities not working?</p> <p><strong>Updates</strong><br> If I change my cron commands to </p> <pre><code> #(Updating tutor activities) - every minute * * * * * /usr/bin/wget http://project/cron/tutor_activities.php </code></pre> <p>Still no success and this comes in my mail -</p> <pre><code>--15:03:01-- http://project/cron/tutor_activities.php =&gt; `tutor_activities.php' Resolving project... IP Address Connecting to test.project|IP Address|:80... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 301 Moved Permanently Location: http://project./ [following] --15:03:01-- http://project./ =&gt; `index.html.1' Resolving project....

HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 302 Found Location: http://project/home/ [following] --15:03:01-- http://project/home/ =&gt; `index.html.1' Resolving project... IP Address Connecting to wproject|IP Address|:80... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 200 OK Length: unspecified [text/html] index.html.1 has sprung into existence. Retrying. </code></pre> <p>And lots of <code>index.html.1</code> , <code>index.html.2</code> files are accumulating in the root of my project. I do not want these files to be created. Just want the files to execute.</p> <p>Same results if I use either of the two commands - </p> <pre><code> * * * * * /usr/bin/wget http://project/cron/tutor_activities.php * * * * * wget http://project/cron/tutor_activities.php </code></pre> <p>running <code>php</code> command with <code>MAILTO</code> set sends me this error /bin/sh: php: command not found. </p> <pre><code>* * * * * php /path/to/test.php </code></pre> <p>So, I am not able to use <code>php</code> command.</p> <p>I have written a simple <code>mailto()</code> inside my test.php. The mail does not come when run through cron (using both <code>wget</code> and <code>php</code> fails) but running the URL manually works.</p> <p><strong>My problem</strong><br> To make it clear again, my main problem is that the functionality inside the cron files is not running. Creation of files is a secondary issue.</p> <p>Any help would be appreciated </p> <p>Thanks,<br> Sandeepan</p>

    2. COI have found the solution myself. I accept that details of my question were not sufficient enough for anybody to guess the actual reason. But, that itself was the problem. But thank you all for your efforts. I am not manually offering bounty to anyone. Let the votes decide the bounty.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
