Setting Up Cron Scheduler for Linux

  1. Open a Linux terminal.
  2. Enter
    crontab-e
     to enter editor mode. For example: 
    root@OpencartQA4:/etc#  crontab -e
  3. Enter the command to set the timing for the cron job. For example, this command sets the cron job to run every 15th minute of every hour, every day, every week, and every month: 
    15 * * * * curl https://www.dev.opencart.cybsplugin.com/mps1760/module/mybank/paymentReport
  4. Enter
    Ctrl + X
     to close the editor.
  5. Enter the
    crontab -l
     command to check the scheduled cron job. For example: 
    root@OpencartQA4:/etc#  crontab -l
    The scheduled cron job should appear on the screen. For example: 
    15 * * * * curl https://www.dev.opencart.cybsplugin.com/mps1760/module/mybank/paymentReport
