laravel 5.5 schedule:run cron job not working in cpanel

Question

I'm have a laravel5.5 project up on shared hosting and trying to run cron job to execute the command "schedule:run" but it just won't execute I think I'm writing the command wrong:

/usr/local/bin/php home/schoolco/prototype/artisan schedule:run >> /dev/null 2>&1

where prototype in the name of my laravel project. the command works in this directory using ssh. please if you have any observation or thought share it.

Answer 1

Try like this

/usr/local/bin/php /home/schoolco/prototype/artisan schedule:run > /dev/null 2>&1

And check are you calling right php executable in your terminal with:

$ which php

Maybe it is not /usr/local/bin/php , maybe /usr/bin/php
