Did I break Sendy by not making a cron job when switching servers?

edited August 2013 in Troubleshooting

I have two lists, one with 400 and another with around 1000 people. Recently, I switched from Amazon Linux to Ubuntu. When I made the switch, however, I forgot to make a cron job to run the autoresponders for each list. Each list has an autoresponder that should send the email on signup.

I recently found out about this and added the cron job. Will Sendy automatically send the email to the people who signed up while the cron job didn't exist? Have I broken Sendy?

  • Hi @Parker,

    Depending on what kind of autoresponders you set up, if it had already passed the time the autoresponder was supposed to send, it won't send. Otherwise, it will.

    Best regards,

    If I know what time the autoresponder stopped, is there a way I could target only those subscribers who subscribed within a certain timeframe for a new campaign?

  • You need to play with the Unix timestamp in join_date of the subscribers table directly in the database.
