I have spent a while reading the forums and made some changes

my cron now says

MAILTO=admin@My-domain-name * * * * * cd /var/www/vhosts/My-domain-name/httpdocs/periodic; /usr/bin/php -c php.ini -q cron.php

now the error says

Output from this server ..
sh: CHANGELOG: command not found
Could not open input file: cron.php

Any help would be most appreciated.

I have found a lot of crons issues have to do with the paths your host has to files on the server. A lot of times an automatic install or if you move your site, the paths are not exactly the same. So it is worth asking your host technical support to simply look at the cron command line to be sure that the path matches their server setup. I had a situation once where the auto install they setup for dolphin actually put in a crons command line that was not the right one for the system I was on. For example Direct Admin and Cpanel can differ in how the paths are setup for system files. This is not always a Dolphin issue and can affect crons jobs with any script. So without knowing the config of the server you are on, even the path you posted is impossible to know for sure if it is right or wrong. So ask your host.
