• Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Cron not running?

I'm trying to have a task run every 15 minutes for my Movable Type installation, and have set up a scheduled task in Plesk via cron. The problem is it's not running at all.

Here's the config...

User: chris
Minute: */15
Hour: *
Day of Month: *
Month: *
Day of Week: *
Command: perl /var/www/vhosts/fullmanator.com/subdomains/mt/httpdocs/tools/run-periodic-tasks -verbose >> /var/log/mt/run-periodic-tasks.log

Now, if I run this command via shell, it executes and runs without issue. So, digging a little further, I did "crontab -l" and did not see my Plesk-submitted cron task in that list. What gives?
 
Make sure that crond service is running and try to restart it first:

# /etc/init.d/crond restart

Did you try to modify crontab tasks manually using "crontab -e" command?
