Rakuten LS has a 5 FTP connection limit. Is there any way to do this via cron? Since the current cron is for all the feeds, how can this be done?
Hi David,
No issue yet, was just trying to head this one off if it was an issue as I didn't know how the cron worked (sequentially). TY!
Hello Retro135,
When cron.php runs, Automation Tool jobs are executed in sequence, so where multiple jobs to the same destination (e.g. affiliate network) exist, the end point (the network's FTP server) should never see more than 1 connection from your account.
However, if you are finding that Automation Tool jobs are failing, and you suspect a connection limit to be the cause, then the first thing I would suggest would be to try php / curl specifically as the values for $config_automationHandler at line 43 of config.advanced.php:
$config_automationHandler = "auto";The default setting of "auto" uses CURL if installed, or PHP's internal FTP functionality otherwise, but you can choose either specifically by using:
$config_automationHandler = "curl";...or
$config_automationHandler = "php";If you are still experiencing the same problem with both settings, let me know and I'll check it out further with you...
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
David.
