Google: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/mod/phpbb_digests/faq/f_904

I am getting a HTTP 406 (Not Acceptable) error when I run the job through a cron process. How can this be fixed?

Your method (such as curl) of calling mail_digests.php may need to send HTTP headers because your installation of PHP is configured to only accept requests from what it believes are browsers. In essence you need to tell the calling program to masquerade as a browser by sending a browser-like user agent string. Using curl, for example, this would work:
curl -A=Mozilla/4.0  http://www.example.com/phpBB3/mail_digests.php

Did you mean write this: curl -c --url " http://website.com/ " in the browser? When I did it, the browser show me a result of the search engine. And if write this: http://myite.com/index.php?option=com_cobalt& ;task=cron.sendAlert&secret=123456, the email notifications are sent. And if write this: http://website.com/ , it will go to the website :)

No just the URL

https://mysite.com/index.php?option=com_cobalt& ;task=cron.sendAlert&secret=123456

If it is sent then it is all about CRON CURL. Somehow you have to open this url with lynx, wget or curl.

wget: permission denied.

lynx: is not available

and curl get this message:

Contact your server administrator.

@ngarasan

Since emails are sent successfully by inserting http://mysite.com/index.php?option=com_cobalt& ;task=cron.sendAlert&secret=123456 directly into your browsers url bar, there must be permission issues in your webserver environment.

This issue should have been reported to your server administrator/web hoster at the first place.

Please contact them and share their reply with us.

Have you tried:

curl -A=Mozilla/4.0  http://mysite.com/index.php?option=com_cobalt& ;task=cron.sendAlert&secret=123456

I really don't know how if this will work.. since wget is not allowed in your webserver.

But you could try cron services like this one and see if it is possible to set a cron not to execute wget, but to only "visit" the url.

Anyway, you should contact ur hosting company to allow wget

Could you please switch your site to a Joomla default template eg Protostar, and try it again with:

curl -A "websitecron"  http://website.com/index.php?option=com_cobalt& ;task=cron.sendAlert&secret=123456

But I still get this message:

Do you have SEF extension? If you place this URL in browser does it change it to SEF?

Ah, finally..

The problem solved.

My server administrator suggest me to use this syntax:

curl -A "websitecelcron" " http://website.com/index.php?option=com_cobalt& ;task=cron.sendAlert&secret=123456"

I missed the double-quote.

And it works like a charm..

Thank you everyone for your help..
