How can I schedule a task or program to run every day at a certain time, in cPanel? Print

  • Cpanel

Applies to: This article is kept for customers who still use a legacy cPanel or WHM environment on OneNet Servers. If your service runs on Plesk, PanelAlpha, or CrossBox, use the current guides instead.

To schedule a task, you need to set up a CRON job.

This is either done via an SSH login using the "crontab" commands,  or via the cPanel Control Panel, which can be accessed by:

  1. login to cpanel
  2. Under the advanced submenu click "Cron Jobs"
  3. From here you can setup
  • email notifications,
  • Add a new Cron Job
  • edit an existing task
