Cron Job PHP syntax

[52802121]

Hello all,

I have this php script that I would like to use to clean my database every 24 hours... I am unfamiliar with unix crons (as I have never used it before) so i am wondering if anyone can help me out

My guess is - the command syntax would be something like...

php /home/c9cms/public_html/scipts/clear_db.php

am i correct? xD if i am wrong then... can someone please point out my errors?

Thanks :tongue:

Have a nice day !

You should ideally give the absolute path to the PHP executable. Providing the path to the script is correct then this should work (Did you mean to type 'scipts' ?):
/usr/bin/php /home/c9cms/public_html/scipts/clear_db.php
