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

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
