Installation - Schedule Dailymail - Set up Cron with SSH - Install wget if needed




Install wget if it's not available
Type "which wget" at the prompt. If it says "no wget" then wget is not available to you in the default location. This is common on servers running control panel software, such as Ensim, that use a "chroot" environment, which restricts all of your access to your home directory. (Under Ensim, and in other environments like it, it is also possible to have the administrator "copy" the /usr/bin/wget binary from the system folder to your virtual folder with the command cp /usr/bin/wget /home/virtual/domain.com/usr/bin)

To install wget manually, first download and compile wget using the shell. If the common utility "lynx" is not available you may have to FTP this file to access it.

lynx http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/wget/wget-1.8.2.tar.gz

When lynx loads hit "d" to download

When it prompts you to "Save to Disk" hit Enter twice to save and use the default filename.

Exit lynx by typing "q" then "y".

Now, the wget source file should be on your server, extract it, configure, and compile it.

tar xzf wget-1.8.2.tar.gz
cd wget-1.8.2
./configure
make


Move the compiled file to the directory of your choice

mv src/wget /usr/bin/wget

remove the source files:

cd ..
rm -rf wget-1.8.2


All done. Make sure your cron task and bounce / signup CGI scripts contain the correct path to wget.


Next:Windows / no Cron
