Hi i took the cron over on my server and i entered the cron command however when i receive my cron email i get this

Invalid token

 

 

 

just curious why i was getting the invalid token.   I did remove the quotes from the command just fyi.  Also cant i just use php -q  do i have to use curl?  i really dont want to receive an email every time this goes off so i would like to use a quiet option for curl if there is one.

 

thanks

i did figure this out, i had to put the quotes back on the string.  i didnt know that curl used quots in crons, php does not that i know of.  so i am no longer getting the invalid token.

 

however, can someone explain to me what the chart shows and what the items mean.  thanks   (is there a guide)

 

i ask because it looks like the headings on the reports dont match the columns so i dont know what is what and also because i dont have any download right now that are loaded so why are there already numbers there showing.
