Hi,

we are using Exponential 4.0.0. We tried to unpublish some of our articles but it didn't work so far. Since I haven't found any answers in this forum yet to this topic I hope that somebody can help me to solve my problem.

Our content.ini.append.php looks like this:

[UnpublishSettings]
RootNodeList[]=2 
ClassList[]=16 

We are using the default cronjob-settings in the cronjob.ini.

Regards,

Mark

Hi Mark

Does the class with ID 16 have a date &time attribute with identifier 'unpublish_date' ?
How are you executing the cron job?

Hi Kristof,

yes, my article class has an identifier "unpublish_date".

Actually we haven't executed any cronjobs yet. Do I have to run the script like this within the system shell:

php runcronjobs.php group_of_tasks

?

Hello,

I tried to run the "runcronjobs.php" within an Windows command script:

@ECHO OFF
php "C:\xampp\htdocs\Exponential\runcronjobs.php"

but the article I wanted to unpublish is still active.

Does anyone know why I doesn't work yet?

Regards,

Mark

runcronjobs.php must be executed within Exponential folder.

"cd path/to/Exponential php runcronjobs.php" (something like this)

Hello,

thanks for your advice. I just tried to execute the script in the Exponential folder but it still doesn't unpublish our article(s). Any other suggestions?

Regards,

Mark

Hi!

I made some new attempts to run the script:

When I try to run the script via browser

http://ourdomain/runcronjobs.php

the following message appears:

#!/usr/bin/env php PHP is currently using the 'apache2handler' interface. Make sure it is using the 'cli' interface. 

When I use the Windows Command Line by typing in

php C:\xampp\htdocs\Exponential\runcronjobs.php

the following error message is displayed:

Warning: require_once(lib/ezutils/classes/ezdebug.php): failed to open stream: N
o such file or directory in C:\xampp\htdocs\Exponential\kernel\classes\ezpersisten
tobject.php on line 57

Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required 'lib/ezutils/classes/ezdebu
g.php' (include_path='.;C:\xampp\php\pear\') in C:\xampp\htdocs\Exponential\kernel
\classes\ezpersistentobject.php on line 57

Any suggestions?

Failure to open an included file is one of two things: either you did not execute
php C:\xampp\htdocs\Exponential\runcronjobs.php in the Exponential root directory or your Exponential installation or your files are not readable because of permissions problems or your installation is incomplete etc. etc.

Try executing php C:\xampp\htdocs\Exponential\runcronjobs.php while in the C:\xampp\htdocs\Exponential directory and see what other error messages might be generated.
