Hi All,

I am having some trouble with a cron job not receiving vbulletin global variables. The cron job runs fine if activated manually from the ACP, but it fails to work as a standalone scheduled task.

The file content looks like this

<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
if (!is_object($vbulletin->db)) {exit;}

if ($vbulletin->options['mysettingname'] == 1){
... do something...
}
...

?>

Any call to "$vbulletin->options['mysettingname']" or to "vbphrase['myphrasename']" fails to work and even the function "construct_phrase(...)" fails to work and I ressorted to get the values directly from the "setting" and "phrase" tables in the database.

Is there any type of memory limitation in vbulletin for a hack/mod amount of settings/phrases used that might prevent global variables to be passed?

Any hint or insight is appreciated.

I read the recommendations by Lynne and Marco, but to no avail.
