Well this is not my first post here, but I’m still a newbie, and it’s certainly the first topic I start.
I’ve been looking around and I am not able to find a hint to this situation:
[list=1]
[*]I set up my cron and it works correctly. I followed this kind of approach
[*]The cronjob (following the template of [font="Courier New"]/full/path/to/php /full/path/to/bugitor/console.php your_command[/font]) works perfectly
[*]But when I try to access http://myhost.ma/console.php in the browser (just to test, because I don’t need that), I have a blank page with this message
like the one in this post
[*]For the moment, I’m using in console.php the same config file as the Web application, where the CFileLogRoute is active
[*]For the moment, the cronjobs are not silent (no [font=“Courier New”]>> /dev/null 2>&1[/font]). I doubt it changes anything (I haven’t tried), but hey I prefer to underline that
[*]I haven’t put getHelp() methods in my command files
[/list]
The question(s) is(are):
is it prone to any security breaches?
Is there a parameter in Yii I’m missing?
Or should I deal with it through .htaccess to redirect browser to some othe blank file when trying to access console.php?
I’m not even sure that redirecting in .htaccess would not affect crons as well.
Well thanks bettor for your hint. I had indeed seen your post but thought it was something else as I saw you talking about cron.php… my bad.
So, what’s the final steps please? There’s also this post which says to put the command file in protected/commands. But in yours, you’ve been told to put in protected/console. And should I forget about my webroot/console.php, or put it somewhere? Will config/main.php be enough, or should there be config/console.php?
Anyway, about it being a bug, that’s what I wasn’t sure of, thus my post Who’s gonna report it?
@bennouna: go ahead and use yiic cronCommand.php approach. That would mean create your cron job and upload it to protected/commands and then call it like protected/yiic cronCommand.php
Great @bettor and many thanks. I removed my console.php, and used yiic. It worked only after I checked my protected/yiic.php to change $yiic path and $config filename.
