Running uidmap.php using wget

Hi David,

Hope all is going well.

A while back you devised a way that I could run the fetch and slow-import cron scripts by using wget from a machine I run at home 24/7. I'm running into similar issues with the uid mapping script and I wondered if you might be able to suggest a way I could run this script in the same way by calling it remotely maybe using wget?

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Chris

Hello Chris, uidmap.php

Hello Chris,

uidmap.php doesn't require any specific parameters, so I would start with a copy of your wget based command line calling fetch.php (as this will pull in all the timeout / other settings required), and then simply replace fetch.php?filename=@ALL with uidmap.php and that should give you the full command to use...

Cheers,
David.

Hi David,

Thanks for the quick response...

After the problems setting up the other wget commands, I really didn't expect it to be that simple!!...but I have made the change as you suggested and it worked first time!..

Thanks again.
