I used gateway.php in my limited test. It does not give errors. It is possible the error you received was caused by the php running as cgi. 'gateway.php?debug=1' will definitely fail by the way.

Using "http://www.myforums.com/forum/gateway.php" as the file name in the cronCP will fail on most servers unless 'allow_url_fopen' is turned on in php.ini. Even that, different versions of php will behave differently.

Since the lastest version sends the debug message through email (set $do_cron_log = 1). I would like to see someone with this problem post some debug messages.

If possible, the Unix cronjob is the preferred way to run the script. I think some ISP provides cron job through the ISP's control panel if you can not access to the shell. Because I do not use the vB3 cron, the test done on them is very limited. Also the vB3 cron has been designed to run some simple scheduled tasks. It was never designed to run complicated tasks as gateway.php.

I have not looked into this. I believe someone has mentioned about a hack to do this, most likely in this thread.

I tryied to get running cronjob from Cpanel but I can't get it working.

Crontab with GET /home3/blalbla/public_html/forum/gateway.php

Any idea ?

All is working fine except signature and moderating queue.

1) Signature
Thread and profile links are working fine in outgoing posts. Signatures are showing in http forum but they aren't exported in outgoing messages. Signatures are showing usenames instead the real signature i.e. if username is esfron. signature display is:
-------
esfron

2) Moderation
I have both threads and posts moderation enabled in a usenet forum but usenet posts are going directly to the forum instead of the moderatong queue. They aren't held back.

Any idea ?
