A few days ago a started receiving some alerts from Magento cron set up in cPanel. This happened since about 7.15 am to 9.15 am. Now I'm no longer receiving these alerts, but I would really like to understand what caused this.
The cron setup in cPanel is: php -q /path-to/public_html/cron.php
And these are alerts/errors I received:
/path-to/public_html/cron.sh: line 46: /dev/null: Permission denied Error, do this: mount -t proc proc /proc /path-to/public_html/cron.sh: line 47: cannot redirect standard input from /dev/null: No such file or directory
/path-to/public_html/cron.sh: line 46: /dev/null: Permission denied grep: write error: Broken pipe /path-to/public_html/cron.sh: line 47: cannot redirect standard input from /dev/null: No such file or directory
php: error while loading shared libraries: libmcrypt.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
This is a Magento 1.9.2.4 install on shared hosting. I have got "AOE Scheduler" extension installed with just basic setup..nothing fancy.
So I am wondering what may have caused these cron alerts? How can I investigate further?
Cron php -q /path-to/public_html/cron.php was not modified before or after these errors..and what's even more strange is that the alerts stopped by themselves.
