Exact Cron Jobs Setup for Using Data Migration

I, and I can see a few other people are having the same problem, am not able to get the Data Migration Module to work.

I am having the same problem where all it will say is "In Process" and not do anything.

So, what I am looking for is the exact procedure for how to set up Cron Jobs using cPanel, clicking on the Standard experience level option.

I looked at the other cron Jobs that must have been automatically set up, and used the path to the cron.php file like those other ones did (the others are for different sites)

So, /home/graphic/public_html/site.com/periodic/cron.php

I also mimiced the others with the time and date settings, but it still doesnt seem to be working.

If anyone can help with the exact way to setup the Cron Job, that would be great.


Thanks,

Cory

Using the advanced experience option is not that hard to do actually. Instead of clicking standard, click advanced. Delete any instances you have for Dolphin 7 Cron Job. Let's start over:

In the boxes on the left, each one should have a * in it.(example *  *  *  *  * )

In the command line put this : /usr/local/bin/php -q /home/account_name/public_html/install_folder/periodic/cron.php

Click commit change and test again.

Change "Account_Name" and "Install_Folder" to match yours.

Thanks.

Hmm, that still doesnt seem to be working.

Are there any special permissions the cron.php file or folder it is in needs to be set to? I only have about 18 members from my 6.16 test site that will be moved over, as well as articles, news, etc. So it shouldn't take that long, right?

I have asked my host provider about my cron job.

He proposed me to write in expert's mode stg. like:

* * * * * cd /home/users/itproject/public_html/IT/labs7/periodic; /usr/bin/php -q cron.php

I tried this, and your proposition, and mine- nothing works- even with trak updates.
