cron_semaphore

Posted by Aron Novak on March 17, 2008 at 3:47pm

Issue Summary

Outside modules may depend on cron_semaphone variable. I suggest you to use this variable as Drupal core does. I got a bug report (http://drupal.org/node/218714), but i cannot fix this, because feedapi really needs cron_semaphore value.
In addition, I also suggest you to use the following:

if (!ini_get('safe_mode')) {
    set_time_limit(240);
  }

In some cases, modules need to do long tasks in cron time.

Hi,

Please commit this change, so feedapi will work on cron again! and poormanscron is Drupal 5 standard.
Thanks in advance for considering!

greetings,
Martijn

Is there any reason why this change isn't even considered?
Folks really want to use FeedAPI and poormanscron together: http://drupal.org/node/255852

This was implemented in 6.x but hasn't been ported to 5.x yet. See #119094: Use drupal_cron_run() (fixes FeedAPI compatibility problem and multiple simultaneous runs).

Not much maintainer activity here at present. :-(

I will add my voice here - poormanscron and D5 really is Drupal standard and it should work with FeedAPI. Again, see http://drupal.org/node/255852

Fingers crossed for a resolution to this - "Help Save Poormanscron!"
