Hi Tony,

I have an example here of a PHP script that is run every half an hour;
30 * * * * run-parts /etc/cleanup.sh >/dev/null 2>&1
59 * * * * run-parts /etc/cleanup.sh >/dev/null 2>&1

minute 30 and 59, /etc/cleanup.sh is run and it sends logdata to 
/dev/null and I get no mail that the script was run.

/etc/cleanup looks like this:

#!/bin/sh
php /home/sites/www.blablabla.com/web/clean.php >/dev/null 2>&1

---

This worked just fine when I used it.
