Scheduled tasks failing.
FIRST, CONFIRM IT IS SET
cPanel > Cron Jobs. Check the entry exists and the schedule is what you expect.
CHECK THE COMMAND
Use full paths. Cron runs with a minimal environment and does not know where php or your script live.
/usr/local/bin/php is the usual path on our servers.TEST IT MANUALLY
Run the exact command over SSH. If it fails there, it will fail in cron, and you will see why.
CAPTURE THE OUTPUT
Rather than discarding output, redirect it to a log file while testing.
Without that, a failing job fails silently.
THE WORDPRESS CASE
HTTP requests to wp-cron.php are blocked on our servers.
WordPress needs DISABLE_WP_CRON set in wp-config.php and a real cron job, or nothing scheduled ever runs.
If several scheduled things are broken, this is almost always why.
EVERY-MINUTE SCHEDULES
Avoid unless genuinely needed. They consume resources continuously.
ORPHANED JOBS
Remove cron entries for software you have deleted. They keep running and generating errors.
