Domain Sync Cron runs every 4 hours when I have set for daily

[garybarr]

I noticed an increase in Domain Sync emails and noticed instead of daily, it was now running every 4-hours.   I went to my Cpanel CRON settings and sure enough, found it was set to 4-hours now...  Maybe I switched it to that for some testing and forgot, so I wasn't worried and set it back to run once a day.   However, even though I am looking at the CRON, it is set for daily... yet still running every 4-hours.

Is there another location that can force this to run?

I've quadruple checked, there isn't another domainsync.php running in crons.

Domain Expiry Sync Frequency

A value of 0 will check the domain expiration dates every four hours. Use this setting to set a different frequency. The lowest frequency setting, 1, will check every hour.

Pending Transfer Sync Frequency

A value of 0 will check the domains in Pending Transfer status every four hours. Use this setting to set a different frequency. The lowest frequency setting, 1, will check every hour.

btw - in recent versions, the domain sync cron job isn't used.

In version 7.6 and above, the Domain Synchronisation Task is handled by the main cron job. No further setup steps are required. For 7.5 and earlier, additional setup is required:

Ahh... I had missed that it was no longer needed in the CRONS... I will remove it and have updated my records to reflect a better time period for this use.

 

Thanks Brian!   As always, you rock!
