Thread: error with cron job

I'm trying to setup a cron job for my affiliate program (using PAP) with the following path:

/usr/local/bin/php -q /home/dhuhmhsc/public_html/pap/scripts/dailyreports.php
(above two lines are supposed to be in one line only)

But I received the following error message:

"Warning: require_once(../settings/settings.php): failed to open
stream: No such file or directory in
/home/dhuhmhsc/public_html/pap/scripts/global.php on line 16

Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required
'../settings/settings.php'
(include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in
/home/dhuhmhsc/public_html/pap/scripts/global.php on line 16"

The "../settings/settings.php" folder and file are existed in the directory.

According to PAP support:

"That error means, that is something wrong with your path, you should ask your hosting support"

How to rectify this error?

Try changing the path you have set as

.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php')

to '../usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') Two dots ".." instead of ".:"

Do you know where I can set this path? I did not set it on my own in the first place. I simply use the default setup provided by PAP.

.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php
