I have about 8 scripts i need to import forums and moderators into the VB database and then update all the counters...

to avoid putting 8 scheduled tasks in VB (cuz i want to run these imports once a day)
i put 3.
1-import forums
2 import moderators
3 update counters.

there are 3 files to import the forums, so at the end of the first 2 i put a redirect to the subsequent one so that by launching the 1st one, all three get executed!

and it works fine from the browser!

when running it in the VB scheduled tasks, the redirects don't work because VB outputs some text while executing these tasks.

so i'm trying to use the VB redirect (as seen in misc.php line 412/443)

doesnt work! i'm obviously missing an include or something to make this work! can anyone tell me how to use these redirects!??

Why not set them up on regular cron? If you are on a *inx server that would be the best way to go about it, it will ensure they run at the time you set them to aswell.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
