Tjoene Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 The reason was correct, you were suspended for 3 cronjobs. Your account has been unsuspended. If you still see the suspended page then you should try clearing your browsers cache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rk1rk1 Posted September 24, 2016 Author Share Posted September 24, 2016 actually i only have 1 cron job, and i can't login again, maybe i got suspended again ?i'm testing a cron job for creating daily backup for mysql database, and i set the job once per year, since i'm still writing the script and testing it.if i'm not allowed to test the script on the host, how's the right way to test it ? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjoene Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 You were suspeneded again for 3 cronjobs. While you only have 1 cronjob set up, you can't execute that more then twice every 24h. Cronjobs are quiet resource intensive on the server, that is why the amount of executions is restrected. If you need to test your script, we would suggest you use a free third party cronjob provider like https://www.setcronjob.com/. That way, you won't be bound by the server limit. Your account has been unsuspended again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolstech Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 4 cron jobs, so your job was set wrong. For testing, the easiest way to test is to not use a cron at all. Put the script somewhere in public_html, and access it in your browser to run it (and as a bonus, you can see the output too!) Unsuspended again.

rk1rk1 Posted September 24, 2016 Author Share Posted September 24, 2016 seems my script considered to be running more than 2 jobs. i would like to know will these jobs count as 2 or more ?the following codes meant to create mysql backup, zip it, and delete the old files. and also, if there's any "for" loop statement, will it count as one job or multiple job for each loop ? thanks ###### part of the script below this linemysqldump --user=$DBUSER --password=$DBPWD --databases $DBNAME | gzip -f -9 > $FOLDERNAME/$GZNAMEfind $FOLDERNAME -name "*.sql.gz" -mtime $DAYSTOKEEP -exec rm {} ; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krydos Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Each time you do a cron run in a day it adds to your total runs for the day. So if you get suspended for 3 cron jobs, get unsuspended quickly, and run another on the same day then your total is to 4. Just cool it with the cron jobs for today and you should be fine. Then tomorrow you can run another two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
