Default FAQ: Cron Job Automated Process Scheduling

This automated scheduler able to run a specific script/s at a predefined time frequency - minimum each minute, maximum each day.

use the php -q /home/(username)/public_html/(filename example cron.php). Note that if you use lynx http://www.(domain).com/(script) will NOT run properly!

Q: What is the minimum time occuranse I can use?
A:
We recommend one each hour to be the most frequent especially for longer processes. We had clients run processed more often but they sometimes overlap and overload the server.
