[campsite-support] Re: Hi again
  • Hi Stefano,

    I'm glad you succeeded in installing Campsite, I posted your message on the
    support list also since this info may be of help to other users. Campsite
    needs a scheduler to run certain jobs regularly. Currently you can have 2
    options:

    1. manually schedule the campsite jobs in cron (ask your server admin to do
    that if possible)

    2. Use Google cron (or from other sites if available). See:
    http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/config/cron.html

    You could create the following scripts:
    a. indexer.php that runs the script campsite-indexer from [campsite_dir]/bin
    directory
    b. autopublish.php that runs the script campsite-autopublish from
    [campsite_dir]/bin directory

    Schedule the indexer script to run once every 6 hours and autopublish each
    minute. The URLs passed to Google cron should be:
    a. http://site.com/indexer.php
    b. http://site.com/autopublish.php

    We'll try to implement this as an option in the campsite settings in a
    future version.

    Hope this helps,
    Mugur
