    I have auto newsletters that are not being sent now. They were working before.

    I have a CRON job set up and I am getting emails that say
    /bin/bash: url from set up advanced tab: No such file or directory

    I am using 7.1.0RC4.
    What is the php version that the plugin supports?
    So not sure what the problem is…

  • The problem is that your Cron Job command is not working. It’s expecting a file instead of a URL. Talk to your host support and ask them what’s the best method to setup a cron job to trigger an URL instead of a PHP file.

    I don’t understand this, this cron job has been working for quite a while? Which means the URL was working before.

    okay I have been in touch with my hosting company and the cron job appears to be working but the newsletter was not sent…
    I have a test newsletter scheduled for 9:00 that I previewed and it has info and I received the following email indicating that the cron job ran…

    What do you suggest I do?

    The host also asked me to provide this info:
    [xxxxxxxxx fsc]$ curl –silent “xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxd&action=wysija_cron&process=all”
    MailPoet’s cron is ready. Simply setup a CRON job on your server (cpanel or other) to trigger this page.

    Note: I have xxxxxx out my server info if you need the full messages please provide an email address I can send it too.

    Update…
    It was finally sent out at 9:30 and was scheduled for 9:00. Another test was sent out at 10:53 for 10:00 so I guess I have to filter that in when I set up the times.

    Thanks for your patience.

    To help other here is the what finally worked:

    curl --silent "https://xxxxxx.com/wp-cron.php?xxxxxxxxxxxxpage&action=wysija_cron&process=all" > /dev/null 2>&1

    Simple, just copy/paste the setting url where the “https:// … process-all” is
