Scheduler and Crontab

[Beefeater]

SOS 4.2.1
CentOS
PHP Version 4.4.2

Trying to get the scheduler to work.
I can manually check mail with "check mail". Works fine for both pop3 and imap.
Running cron.php through crontab, wget, lynx, firefox etc gives only this line (the FATAL line comes up when I go through a browser).

Thu Feb 1 09:59:38 2007,974 [3233] DEBUG SugarCRM - --------------------------------------------> at cron.php <--------------------------------------------
Thu Feb 1 09:59:38 2007,975 [3233] FATAL SugarCRM - If you see a whole string of these, there is a chance someone is attacking your system.

At least give me some errors or something, getting tired of this.

Ive been around on the forum but haven't found a solution yet.
Please help me!

EDIT:

Ive taken one step forward. cron.php gets executed but it stops here
Thu Feb 1 14:48:01 2007,490 [27478] DEBUG SugarCRM - Saving LAST_RUN for SchedulerJob [] using: [2007-02-01 14:48]

Then nothing more.

[sugarchris]

check [sugar]/cache/modules/Schedulers/pid.php.

I'm betting the permissions on that file do not match the creds apache runs with. remove the file and let the external crontab do its thing.

I removed it. Didn't work.
chmod 777 didn't work.
Any other ideas?

What is supposed to happen after
Thu Feb 1 14:48:01 2007,490 [27478] DEBUG SugarCRM - Saving LAST_RUN for SchedulerJob [] using: [2007-02-01 14:48]
?

OK I'm getting
[05-Feb-2007 15:45:01] PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /opt/sugarcrm/htdocs/sugarcrm/data/SugarBean.php on line 779
while cron.php is running.

EDIT:
Line 779
$query .= $field."='".$GLOBALS['db']->quote(from_html($this->$field))."'";

                                       // Try comparing this element with the head element.
                                        if(0 == $firstPass) $firstPass = 1;
                                        else $query .= ", ";

                                                if(is_null($this->$field)) {
                                                        $query .= $field."=null";
                                                }
                                                else {
                                                $query .= $field."='".$GLOBALS['db']->quote(from_html($this->$field))."'";

[Beefeater]

Problems solved.
Replaced
$query .= $field."='".$GLOBALS['db']->quote(from_html($this->$field))."'";
with
$query .= $field."='".$this->db->quote(from_html($this->$field))."'";
in
SugarBean.php on line 779.

Now I just have to fix the rest..urgh.

check [sugar]/cache/modules/Schedulers/pid.php.

I'm betting the permissions on that file do not match the creds apache runs with. remove the file and let the external crontab do its thing.

This solved it for me. I noticed that most files were owned by nobody root, where as the pid files and some of the containing directories were owned by nobody 476776747773. Hmmm.
I did
chown -R nobody:root [sugarcrmdir]/cache

And things started happening. Only wasted three hours on that ...

I have tried this. It is not working.


Chris,
Can you help us on this?

[sugarchris]

My suspicion is that there may be a regression introduced with 4.5.1b. Can those of you with problems post system specs, platform, and Sugar version?

[porus]

Chris,

Thanks for quick response.

The following are system spec:
SugarOS 4.5.1
Kubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft
Apache 2.0.55
php 5.1.6
Mysql
