Setting up cron...

My members are not getting their validation emails and I looked into how the cron was running...

/var/www/kz5/periodic; /usr/bin/php -q cron.php

And that returns:

/bin/sh: /var/www/kz5/periodic: Permission denied

Could not open input file: cron.php


Uhhhhhhhhhhhh... I'm lost, and this is connected to the email system how?
Thanks in advance!

Hello!

SO what permissions have periodic folder (should be 755) and cron.php (should be 644) file there?

/periodic = 755

/periodic/cron.php = 644

Thanks for the link Chris - I read that post a few days ago and followed it to the letter, but alas, getting the error I mentioned.

For the most part - what is the cronjob supposed to do? And where in the system can I set the registration of members to instant, instead of requiring a validation email?

Much thanks!

Go to admin->settings->moderation Settings and you can uncheck the options you don't require to run

That did it. Thanks.

I guess it didn't dawn on me to check for that under "moderation", lulz.
