I configured some currencies in Magento (configuration>general>currencysetup and system>manage currency)

Unfortunately, although i can import manually, it won't update automatically.

  • Is your cronjob running? Do you have any Apache log errors? Do you have any Magento log errors?

  • to set your cron go via SSH to crontab -e and check if it has something like */5 * * * * php /home/[domain]/www/cron.php

  • :-) Hi Sander, my hoster also gave me that line... thanks (i have set it in directadmin though. Unfortunately it seems that currency didn't change, but that might be coincidence so i guess i have to follow it

Please ensure your Magento cronjob is running. In crontab (or directadmin or any other administrative software) check for a cronjob that looks something like */5 * * * * php /home/[domain]/www/cron.php.

Now in the backend under System > Configuration > Currency Setup > Scheduled Import Settings you can set the frequency of the import to either daily, weekly or monthly
