for our magento site, suddenly cron job stopped working.
when we are trying to set up cron job using below command, it give error as :
-bash: */5: No such file or directory
command :
*/5 * * * * php -f /var/www/html/sitename/cron.php
Edit
we have 2 sites on the same server.
we have a custom module to check if the cron is working or not.
in one site we are getting the below message
in another site, this message:
