Video Not Posting To Site

Having problems with video uploads failing.  Found that video is uploaded and placed in the video files directory but not converting or posting to site.

If i'm guessing correctly the video should convert to flv format and the flv version of the file reads zero file size.

Been trying to figure this out for a week now, any help would be appriciated.

Do you have your cron job properly setup?

Crons is set as specified when installing dolphin, the line it said to copy and past which is... cd /home/bareyour/public_html/social/periodic; /usr/local/bin/php -q cron.php

and ***** to run every minute.

cd /home/bareyour/public_html/social/periodic; /usr/local/bin/php -q cron.php

Looks as if it may not be right to me, is this in a live server? More likely to be something like...

cd /home/vhosts/bareyour.some.suffix/public_html/social/periodic; /usr/local/bin/php -q cron.php

Also /usr/local/bin/php may not be the right path to php. Could very likely be /usr/bin/php

IE - I removed "local".

Further more I have my server set up so that excluding the path entirely also works so try something like...

cd /home/vhosts/bareyour.some.suffix/public_html/social/periodic; php -q cron.php

If that doesn't work use a terminal to connect to your server. I use putty, it's very simple and efficient and free. http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

from your root directory (you may have to do cd.. a few times to get to root one logged in) enter the comands manually trying different variations...

#cd /home/vhosts/bareyour.some.suffix/public_html/social/periodic

Make sure you have actually changed to the periodic directory!

then try

#/usr/local/bin/php -q cron.php

then

#/usr/bin/php -q cron.php

then

php -q cron.php

if you get a very short pause and the command prompt comes back then that variation is correct and you should enter the cron job as per the command that worked.  If you get an error message on all of them post the error message here.

Tip: to copy from putty use <ctrl> and <insert> and to paste into it use <shift> and <insert>
