Cron Job error

[ricardo777]

Sorry if this is the wrong forum.

I have problems with the cron jobs creation.

When I create a cron job I get the error:

Error Creating Cron Job

Details

crontab returned non zero value: "./data/users/admin/crontab.conf.tmp":1: bad command errors in crontab file, can't install.

Thanks

Something is wrong with your cronjob then. What are you putting in the fields?

Sorry for the late reaction.

I am putting in the field

*/5 * * * * php /home/admin/domains/domain.nl/public_html/cron.php

or

php /home/admin/domains/domain.nl/public_html/cron.php

Try changing it to:

cd /home/admin/domains/domain.nl/public_html/; php -q cron.php

Sorry for the maybe noob question, have tried google before posting.
