How to run php file as cron job in cPanel in Bigrock Shared Hosting service?

I am trying to run a PHP file that automatically generates a sitemap and pings various search engines using cURL as a cron job.

The hosting plan is a shared plan provided by Bigrock.in .

CPanel Pro 1.0 Control Panel (RC1)

This is my current cron command:

php /home/myusername/public_html/sitemap_auto.php

But that doesn't seem to work at all. So any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

The path to the php binary is / usr / bin / php, so the cron command to be configured will be

/usr/bin/php/home/myusername/public_html/sitemap_auto.php



However, the reason for the cron failure is likely elsewhere. I suggest you raise a request to our support team and tell them exactly how you create a sitemap and what specific commands you use to test search engines.
