Problem with cronjob under Windows hosting

Hi All,

as far as i know cronjobs are only used as a term in linux servers. does any one know who to set up the cronjobs for windows based hosting?

Iam getting serveral erros such as wenn going to my own Profil on my site i get a 404 error msg. same i get with pics, video etc.

so i guess this is in regards with the cron job problem being at hand

No, the 404 errors are a rewrite problem, not a cronjob problem.

Hopefully Dolphin_Jay will chime in, he's one of the few people here that knows how to set Dolphin up on a Windows system.

Hi Scott any idea on how to fix the rewirte problem you mentioned?

See the Windows section.

The 404 error is probably because of how your web server is setup.  By default, Dolphin uses URL rewriting, which not all setups will support.  If you're using Apache, make sure to load the rewrite module.  If you're using IIS (which you probably are, since this is a Windows setup) or some other web server, then I have no idea.

Okay i guess i found the problem with the 404 error 

as you suggested the appache is undefind

Its undefined because its a windows server and they are not checking this in code for windows.

Do you have URL Rewrite installed on the server ?

I have attached the rules that need to be in web.config for rewriting.

If all else fails you can turn off permalinks from the dolphin admin panel.

Settings - Permalinks

 You are a star taking out the permanet links solved the problem i will still see to it that the apache rewirte modul is working or will be installed.

Do you have any idea how to set up a cron job under a hosting/shared windows server

If they dont offer a control panel with scheduled tasks then i would say you are out of luck.

a tool on IIS 7 called URL Rewriter helped me out to make Orca forum running now!

but permalink within created forum still have 404 error, digging out solutions....
