Question:

I installed EGroupware on my server, and I want to set up a cron job to trigger EGroupware's cron job script. What should I do to set up the cron job?

Answer:

Our webcron service is best for triggering EGroupware's cron job script. Just follow below simple steps to configure cron job for your EGroupware:

  1. Open your cron job dashboard, click on " Cron Job" button.
  2. In field "URL to call", fill the "URL to call" field. e.g. http://www.example.com/egroupware/phpgwapi/cron/asyncservices.php?domain=default (replace www.example.com/egroupware with your install location). Choose an appropriate cron job execution frequency. Checkout below screenshot:
