PHP scripts not running even as root

[mrk]

Hi guys I tried to setup a cronjob to run a php script.
something simple like this:

php /var/www/vhosts/onlinehome-server.info/mydomain.co.uk/script.php

didn't worked. So I used the terminal as root and I noticed that php is not running script not even as root.

not even commands like php -v works.
I don't get any error back.

any help?

plesk version 12.0

How did you setup the cron? Did you schedule it via the GUI under the root account?

Yes at first I just click on scheduled tasks. Then I realise I can go to server --> scheduled tasks and there I can choose the user. Issue solved wasn't related to the cronjob. Time was different on virtuozzo plesk and my CRM.

I'm doing it this way:

- First change the shell for cronjobs:

/usr/local/psa/bin/server_pref -u -crontab-secure-shell "/bin/sh"

- Then setup the cronjob in the panel, respecting the php-settings of the customer (customer panel view)

%php_binary% -c %path_to_customer_php.ini% %path_to_php_file%

E.g. (using php 5.5 provided by plesk)

/opt/plesk/php/5.5/bin/php -c /var/www/vhosts/system/example.com/etc/php.ini /var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs/cron.php

Please keep in mind that if you change the php-version for that customer you have to alter the settings for the cronjob to use the right php version.
