Cron Jobs in Shared Website Hosting
If you get any of our shared website hosting packages, you're able to create cron jobs with only a few clicks via your Hepsia Control Panel even if you have never done that before. Hepsia is very simple to use, so instead of typing numbers and asterisks on certain positions, which is the common technique to create a cron job, you'll be able to pick the minutes, hours or days a given script needs to be run using uncomplicated drop-down menus. The latter is done in the Cron Jobs part of the Control Panel and, naturally, you can use the first method as well, if you are experienced enough and you prefer it. In both cases, you will also need to enter the path to the script which will be executed as well as the path to the PHP, Python or Perl system files within your account. The latter is included in the Control Panel and you're able to copy/paste it, but if you encounter any issues, you can contact your tech support team.
Cron Jobs in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you use a semi-dedicated server account from our company to host your sites, you are able to set up cron jobs for any of them without any difficulty. This can be done in 3 really easy steps in the Hepsia Control Panel that's used to manage the hosting account, so you can create a new cron even if you don't have any prior experience. Inside the Cron Jobs area of Hepsia, you will discover a box where you should copy/paste the path to the system files in your account for the programming language your script was designed in - PHP, Perl, Bash, Python, etcetera. You also have to provide the folder path to the script file which will be executed in the same box and use our user-friendly drop-down menus to choose how often our system will execute the cron. More advanced users, can also use the traditional method of creating a cron job by typing digits and asterisks in specific positions as well as the aforementioned paths.
