Knowing this, we can create a Cron job to launch the update script. + +**Note:** the update script will not fetch feeds more often than every twenty minutes, so there's no sense in setting the Cron job to run anymore often than that. + +You will need to check the Cron documentation for your specific distribution ([Debian/Ubuntu](https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto), [Red Hat/Fedora/CentOS](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Administration_Guide_Draft/Cron), [Slackware](https://docs.slackware.com/fr:slackbook:process_control?#cron), [Gentoo](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Cron), [Arch Linux](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cron)...) to insure you set the Cron job correctly. + +It's advisable that you run the Cron job as your Web server user (often `www-data`). + +## Example on Debian/Ubuntu +To run the updater script every hour, and 10 minutes past the hour: + +Run `sudo crontab -e` and copy the following line into the crontab: +``` +10 * * * * www-data php -f /usr/share/FreshRSS/app/actualize_script.php > /tmp/FreshRSS.log 2>&1 +``` + +This crontab example, of course, assumes that FreshRSS is installed in `/usr/share/FreshRSS`; if you've installed it somewhere else, be sure to correct the path in your crontab entry. |
