SnapShot [support thread]

/bin/sh: /home5/user/public_html/my_admin/backups/snapshot/snapshot_cron.php: Permission denied

I would say its is telling you that you do not have shell access.

most cpanel and some other cron commands would look like this

php /home5/user/public_html/my_admin/backups/snapshot/snapshot_cron.php

Sorry I forgot to post that I figured it out. My host required additional text to the command. The cron job is working beautifully! This is a great mod for peace of mind.

While we're at it, should the time interval setting in snapshot_cron.php be longer or the same as the interval setting on cron? So is it possible to get a false negative report if snaphot had a shorter time interval than the cron job? I want to make sure I have my time intervals set properly.

If you look in the file snapshot_cron.php you will see that it is set NOT to run within 15 minutes of a run. So even if you have the cron run every 10 minutes snap shot will NOT run on the first call but on the second call. Most users have the cron set to run every hour.
