Hi Willie,

Setup via cpanel indeed bit hard, because its depend server configuration.

Another solution, have you tried use 3rd party cron job? it easier..
www.setcronjob.com/
www.easycron.com/

thank you

which will work best and be less stressful on server?

use 3rd party cron services, usually I use www.setcronjob.com , but still the cron processing still on your server, that cron services only for trigger

what do you mean only for trigger? Also i will be installing arrowchat onto my site, will either of the two affect each other.

I mean the trigger for executing the cron job url www.yoursite.com/index.php?option=com_community&task=cron ..

regarding another issue, please you create new topic
