When purchasing something the order goes through on the website the money gets removed from my account but I don't get an email confirmation to confirm my purchase, but I get other emails like wishlist suggestions newsletter etc not at the same time but it seems to be just sales emails.

I recently install http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/aoe-scheduler.html extention to see what cron jobs I have running on my site.

enter image description here

Why is my core_email_queue_send_all so packed and how do I clean it out ?

Once I selected all my cron jobs and clicked run my sales emails started coming through, I thought this would run automatically but apparently not, any ideas on how to make this run automatically ?

    Did you check your crontab? Are other crons actually running?

  • Everything says enabled but no according to the timeline view there not actually running, I don't know why I saw somewhere that the corn.php file maybe have been altered so I replaced it with the original i got from the theme and that didn't make a difference.

  • Are you sure there is a crontab actually running? That's something you need to configure on your server, not in Magento

  • Well there are no cron jobs listed in my server cpanel, is it the cron.php file that needs to be run every 5 mins ?

    Yes, actually the cron.sh file. You'll need something like */5 * * * * /bin/sh <your_directory>/cron.sh in your crontab

I managed to fix this after looking at another article since the update to 1.9.1 magento has moved the job of sending emails to a cron job, now since for some reason my cron jobs aren't working as they should I viewed an article which says you need to remove or comment out line #76 in “Mailer.php" - app/code/Mage/Core/Model/Email/Template/Mailer.php #76 to stop the emails being added to the cron job and have it send using the original way.

  • I'm pretty sure the cron email order queue is a 1.9.1 feature. I think you've got a different issue.
