Resolved... This makes sense since moving the Crons folder rests outside of the public_html directory and Single 5.4 php is set for the site. All of the crons set-up need, in my case, the extra bits " -c /home/username/public_html/php.ini" to work. The automation and domain sync now work after doing this. Some scripts executed with a Cron Job requires a specific php.ini file to be used. When executing a PHP script from a Cron Job (or via the command line), you can use a custom php.ini file. The most common situation where a custom php.ini file is needed is when a user's code requires access to something such as Zend Optimizer, which is specified in the php.ini file. Specifying the php.ini File To specify an alternate php.ini file, you'll need to use the -c flag in your PHP command line. For example: php -c /home/username/public_html/php.ini /home/username/crons/domainsync.php In this instance, /home/username/public_html/php.ini is the full path to the php.ini file you'd like to use and /home/username/public_html/myscript.php is the full path to the php script you'd like to run. Using your actual username, change the path to the php.ini and the file you intend to run accordingly Note: Your home directory may be home1, home2, home3, etc.

I am getting the ERROR... Failed loading /usr/php/54/usr/lib64/php/modules/ioncube_loader_lin.so: /usr/php/54/usr/lib64/php/modules/ioncube_loader_lin.so: undefined symbol: zend_new_interned_string Failed loading /usr/php/54/usr/lib64/php/modules/ZendGuardLoader.so: /usr/php/54/usr/lib64/php/modules/ZendGuardLoader.so: undefined symbol: zend_new_interned_string Site error: the file <b>/home1/chaosan1/crons/domainsync.php</b> requires the ionCube PHP Loader ioncube_loader_lin_5.2.so to be installed by the website operator. If you are the website operator please use the <a href="http://www.ioncube.com/lw/">ionCube Loader Wizard</a> to assist with installation. I was forced by my host to update all of the php 5.2 ini's to 5.4 The message used to be... Domain Syncronisation Cron Report for 14-02-2014 14:34:02<br /> <br /> Active Domain Syncs<br /> As I inderstand it, the "Active domain Syncs" would be populated with my active domains. I have yet do have any to synch. I want to get this error resolved first. The Host said the ion loader is up to date. Grr. Any ideas?

Before Using PHP 5.2 (Single php.ini) (Same as PHP 5.2, but all subdirectories will use ~/public_html/php.ini) also a copy of the php.ini file was placed in the root since the crons folder was moved outside of the public html. A message from the report showed... Domain Syncronisation Cron Report for 16-02-2014 00:01:02<br /> <br /> Active Domain Syncs<br /> Nothing there yet. New account. but the report ran. Blue Host forced a conversion over to php.ini version 5.4 and here is the error after that. Failed loading /usr/php/54/usr/lib64/php/modules/ioncube_loader_lin.so: /usr/php/54/usr/lib64/php/modules/ioncube_loader_lin.so: undefined symbol: zend_new_interned_string Failed loading /usr/php/54/usr/lib64/php/modules/ZendGuardLoader.so: /usr/php/54/usr/lib64/php/modules/ZendGuardLoader.so: undefined symbol: zend_new_interned_string Site error: the file <b>/homeX/xxroot1/crons/domainsync.php</b> requires the ionCube PHP Loader ioncube_loader_lin_5.2.so to be installed by the website operator. If you are the website operator please use the <a href="http://www.ioncube.com/lw/">ionCube Loader Wizard</a> to assist with installation. Tried both single php as well as fast cgi for the type of php.inin file. the crons/config file points to the whmcs folder in the public html. The config file points to the renamed admin file as well. The only difference I can see is that the php.ini file went from 5.2 to 5.4 Is there anything I missed or can try to resolve the error above? FYI: This is a note at the tail end of the php configuration settings. Notice: Be aware that this only modifies your ~/public_html/php.ini file. If you apply these changes, please confirm that your other php.ini files are up-to-date for the appropriate version of PHP you're using. We highly suggest using the "Single php.ini" option for your desired version of PHP, to ensure that the proper php.ini is being applied for your site's software. If you choose to use PHP 5.4, you'll want to make sure your crons use "/usr/php/54/usr/bin/php" instead, as otherwise it will use PHP 5.2. ---according to the error, it looks like the php file is 5.4--

Here is an error I got with setting up my cron... "Site error: the file /home1/chaosan1/public_html/whmcs/xxxxadmin/configgeneral.php requires the ionCube PHP Loader ioncube_loader_lin_5.2.so to be installed by the website operator. If you are the website operator please use the ionCube Loader Wizard to assist with installation." Even though my php was set to 5.4 quickcgi. I reverted to 5.2 quickcgi and put php.ini in the Home directory and a copy in the public_html. The cron now runs and my whmcs panel is operational. my 2 cents.
