    Cron jobs

    Why do my cron jobs keep getting deleted ? I am guessing for some reason there is an admin going into my account and deleting them all !!!!!
    If this problem persists i will be forced to find hosting else where.
    If it is because its a php based game and it is not something you want on your hosting then just tell me not just keep deleting my crons.
    regards

    * Crons: We do not allow more than one cron within a 5 minute time period per account. This means if you have two crons you must make sure that both do not go off within 5 minutes of each other.

    Re: Cron jobs

    The only reason they'd be deleted would be if they run closer then 5 minutes of each others.

    Note that if you have two crons there must still be at least five minutes in between them;
    cron 1 run: 5, 15, 25, 35 etc - cron 2 run: 0, 10, 20, 30 etc <- would work, as they alternate every 5 minutes.

    cron 1 run: 5, 15, 25, 35 etc - cron 2 run: 7, 17, 27, 37 etc <- would NOT work, as cron 2 would attempt running only 2 minutes after cron 1 was run.

    either that, or go for paid options. 1 minute crons are available if you upgrade to Prime ($4.95 for a year)
