  • i don't have it saved somewhere..

    the ideea is,..

    the install script which creates the cron is not run based on the security limitation of the server.

    i made an install on a dummy server, i copy the files.. put the write permissions and it's working.

    i don't know the cron what's for.. what should do it..

    i mean eve i will have my own server, i prefer to know what, where how is doing and not let an application to change / customize too much of the environment.

  • Hi,

    Here is what cron is needed for (the info is from the penultimate page you
    see during the install process):

    Automated Tasks:

    Campsite needs some tasks to be run automatically in order to keep specific
    stuff up to date. At this step we will install them for you.

    This tasks will run as cron jobs on your system and so you will be able to
    edit and customize them depending on your own requirements.

    Individual cron job files will be saved to install/cron_jobs/ directory.
    There will be an all_at_once file in the same directory which includes all
    the cron jobs.

    Campsite has tools that perform the following automated tasks:
    Autopublish: Modifies the status of issues and articles scheduled for
    certain actions.
    Events Notifier: Sends emails to administrative users containing the latest
    events that took place in Campsite.
    Indexer: Indexes the article content (update the search engine database).
    Statistics: Updates Web site statistics.
    Subscriptions Notifier: Sends emails to subscribers alerting them when
    their subscription ends.

    You can read more on this in Campsite manual here:
    http://code.campware.org/manuals/campsite/3.3/index.php?id=198

    Please let me know if you need any more info.

    All the best,

    Sava
