Events Notifier - Need to switch this off!
  • Hi,

    there's a notify script working like a maniac in the bin, chugging mail messages through the system every 2 minutes. Apart from the fact that this is eating server ressources like hell, it fills up space (roughly by 10 MB every day Shocked ).

    I looked at my admin settings and it says no notification. So instead of that it sends them to the server admin (which means they end up clogging the base mailfolder).

    Help? Please? Confused

    Hi,
    /bin/sh: /home/xyz/public_html/bin/campsite-autopublish: No such file or directory

    It's possible if you have deleted newscoop instance. For complete cleaning you need to clear cron tasks on account where had been installed newscoop instance
  • Hi Andrey,

    no - this is a site having Newscoop up and running.

    Cheers

  • Hi again,

    I found the relevant cron jobs in my cron job folder on Cpanel and I could set that to once a year instead.

    What I wonder is what causes the error message?

    I'm not so sure. Look at /home/xyz/public_html/bin/campsite-autopublish: No such file or directory - It means there is no that file and you havn't notified by newscoop but by cron daemon which can not find a scheduled script.
  • it has a file newscoop-autopublish in there
  • Actually all the cronjobs call for scripts named "campsite" rather than "newscoop", but the files inside the folder are all "newscoop-something"

    Look at my message http://forum.sourcefabric.org/index.php/mv/msg/3304/9134/#ms g_9134
    You have deleted campsite instance w/o cleaning cron tasks.
  • Okay, I get it now. And what should be there instead? For Newscoop? Nothing?

    during installation newscoop set up cron tasks. Just remove old tasks.
  • errr - there are no other cron tasks in the folder. The installation already took place.
