Cron path HELP please

[telex]

I am running script that needs cron.

Instructions I got is:
A typical command looks like this:

path_to_php -f full_path_to_script
Where path_to_php is the full path to PHP executable. Usually this is /usr/local/bin/php. But this might differ on your server so you had better consult with your hosting.

full_path_to_script is the full filesystem path to cron/check.php file.

I have included an auxiliary script that will let you quickly find out what the full path to the cron script on your server is. Please type a URL like this:

http://www.mydomain.com/dir/cron/path.php
And you will see the full path.
I run the script and I got this part correct!
The full path to the cron script is:
/home/access/public_html/cron/check.php

So I setup cron path:
/usr/local/bin/php -f /home/access/public_html/cron/check.php

I get error:
Could not open input file: /home/access/public_html/cron/check.php

I believe that this part might be wrong:
/usr/local/bin/php -f

Anyone can help?

TIA

BTW: I did setup the cron in the Cpanel correctly: day,hour,minutes, email etc.

Do you know what server you are on? I can check the path to php for you.

How the f...k I 'll find out? Where is the info?

I spend hour going trough everything I can think of and nothing.

I am slightly frustrated. (as you can tell)

TIA

Do you mean the path
/home/access/public_html/dir/cron/check.php

access is your username in cpanel?

I am trying to follow this instruction.

Yes access is my username.

I did change to: (it does make a sense)
/home/access/public_html/cr/cron/check.php

See if it works.

Thank you

To run that with PHP you can use:

php /home/access/public_html/cr/cron/check.php

Then if you wanted to run it every 15 minutes it would look like

*/15 * * * * php /home/access/public_html/cr/cron/check.php

I am trying that now. Will see what happens.

Thank you.
