If you run web2py with "python web2py.py" that should be hard cron. If you specified no additional switches or changed it in code and it still runs as soft-cron then it's a bug :) The easiest way to check this is to run web2py with "python web2py.py -D 1" to enable debug mode, it will output more info about the cron task execution. Also, can you tell me what OS you are using and if you are running web2py from source or from a distribution bundle ?

Its very usefull thing!!! web2py comes with an example (cleaning sessions), see applications/ admin/cron ! Do you think additional examples should be put there, or that maybe new applications should include a template commented out crontab ? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py Web Framework" group.
