Problem getting cron job work with php

The problem has nothing to do with PHP, because lynx uses curses or some Ansi type library to update the screen it will try to read the value of your TERM variable... Cron jobs don't inherit any Environment variables (such as TERM or PATH), so you can either use something that doesn't need a TERM type like "wget", or do an "export TERM=vt100" in the same crontab script (if it's a shell script) or same line of the crontab... i.e. * * * * * * export TERM=vt100;/usr/bin/lynx -dump http://xxxxxx/xxx/cron.phtml -GED Northern.CA ===-- http://www.northern.ca Canada's Search Engine
