For two days now i am struggling to get cron job to work to fetch mails.

auto-cron works perfect but then mails are fetched only when staff has logged into osTicket.

here is my cron.php

#!/usr/bin/php -q

<?php

# Configuration: Enter the url and key. That is it.

# url => URL to api/task/cron e.g http://yourdomain.com/support/api/task/cron

# key => API's Key (see admin panel on how to generate a key)

#$config = array(
        'url'=>'http://mydomain.com/support/api/task/cron',
        'key'=>'My-Api-Key'
        );
#pre-checks
function_exists('curl_version') or die('CURL support required');
#set timeout
set_time_limit(30);
#curl post
$ch = curl_init();        
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $config);        
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, '');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'osTicket API Client v1.7');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array( 'Expect:', 'X-API-Key: '.$config));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, FALSE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
$result=curl_exec($ch);        
curl_close($ch);
if(preg_match('/HTTP\/.* (+) .*/', $result, $status) && $status == 200)
    exit(0);
echo $result;
exit(1);
?>

and here is what i have in my cron tab

wget --post-data '' --header='X-API-Key: <My-Api-Key>' http://MyDomain.com/support/api/tasks/cron

I am getting the following error

--2013-09-04 04-- http://MyDomain.com/support/api/tasks/cron(http://MyDomain.com/support/api/tasks/cron)
