Support

This is the output for a failed CRON job. Have confirmed with Rochen that everything is set as it should be. Thinking a corrupted upgrade to a file, but I don't know....or I wouldn't be here.

Thank you

Hi Justin,

I am going to get this over to our engineering team so they can double check the CLI version for you as well and they will update you via this ticket later today.

Please let us know if we can be of any further help.

Just for future reference, here is the detail of the resolution.

Thanks for your patience here. I have adjusted your cron's PHP path to use '/usr/local/bin/php' instead of '/opt/alt/php73/usr/bin/php' which will ensure that your settings configured in CloudLinux on the 'Select PHP Version' page in cPanel take effect.

Afterwards I ran '/usr/local/bin/php /home/tcxpybki/public_html/cli/akeeba-backup.php' via shell access on your account and confirmed the Akeeba backup completed successfully.
