Hi,
I have a web based system that allows users to upload XML files and insert
them into the database, however some of these files are large and are
causing the webserver to timeout.
Is it possible to create a cron job that can insert the xml files say every
hour, then the users of the site would only have to upload the files and not
wait for the insert?
Any advice / examples here would be great as I am not a UNIX expert!
Thanks
