I'm using Moodle version 1.9.13 (Build: 20110801) and attempting to run the cron.php script manually as root on the server. I get the following:
Starting activity modules
Processing module function assigment_cron ...
I'm then put back to the command prompt. What do I need to check to resolve this issue? Are there any logs I can look at?
Thanks for the response. Debugging has been enabled. Looking at the PHP error log file, when I try to run the cron script (I'm running it from the browser now as the web server user as suggested) I get the following:
PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare gzdecode() in /var/www/html/vle/mod/assignment/type/openoffice/openofficelib.php on line 147
I've had a look and can't find much on this. Any ideas?
I take it you have some sort of optional assignment type there then (openoffice)? I'm not familiar with it, but it could well be broken. Remove it?
EDIT:
Ahhh... I think you'll find that gzdecode is actually a built in function in PHP so the openoffice plugin shouldn't be declaring a function of the same name. It may be a genuine mistake or it may be trying to reproduce the built in function - in which case it should have a check around it for the function already existing. Either way it's a bug in the openoffice plugin.
I removed the OpenOffice PHP extension and the cron script is running fine now. Thanks for your help.
