I've recently started porting a site to CakePHP and have a couple of questions regarding cron jobs.
The site had a class for managing emails that would connect to the database and add messages to a queue table. A cron job calling a PHP script would use this class to dispatch messages at regular intervals. Pretty much what the Pear module Mail_Queue does: http://pear.php.net/package/Mail_Queue Now wasn't clear how using cron jobs works when using the CakePHP framework, it was brought up in an existing thread (running cake code via cron) but there was no definitive answer I started developing the class as a component that would connect to the database directly, however I noticed that conflicts with CakePHP and breaks its database connection. So in short am I able to get cron scripts to call CakePHP controller and component functions? Or I am going to have to duplicate some of the code in the class in a new class that doesn't use the framework? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
