Before you begin

A safe known command, correct paths and permission for cron.

Use the controls offered by your installed version and account permissions. This guide describes the workflow; it does not grant additional access.

Follow the steps

  1. Open Cron Jobs and choose a preset or supported schedule.
  2. Use the executable and absolute application path expected by the host.
  3. Start with a non-destructive command and conservative interval.
  4. Save and inspect application output after its scheduled time.
  5. Disable jobs no longer needed.

Check the result

The application records the expected scheduled activity.

If something goes wrong

A saved cron entry is not proof of successful execution. Check paths, CLI PHP version and permissions; avoid expensive per-minute duplicates.
