• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be 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/Scheduled Tasks Looping

Hi,

I've got a frustrating problem in Plesk where a cron task scheduled to only run once each midnight loops throughout the hour.

0 0 * * *
/usr/bin/php /var/www/vhosts/xxx.com/httpdocs/gn_toplist.php

The script is used to check birthdays and send out emails. It runs fine but then does it again and again until the hour has passed - so users end up with 60 emails!

I was wondering, is this a glitch in Plesk or am I forgetting to do something?

Thanks for the help in advance!

Jorge
