Anyone?

I'm still having this issue. When I visit the CRON job URL in my web browser I'm able to have it run. However, when I use an actual command via terminal or through CRON itself I get "Access Denied" because C5_EXECUTE is not defined.

Curious if anyone else has ran into this.

Sorry for replying on an old post, but I had a similar problem and solved it in a different way.

I was using lynx instead of wget to run sitemap generator, e.g.:

This gave 'Access denied' as you had found. But the problem was that the URL parameter needed to be wrapped in quotes, thus:


This produced the expected result and worked. The reason the first example did not work is due to the being lost in the request. The same issue applies to wget.

The other suggested solution to create a command line entry point to C5 is valid and useful, but probably overkill for this particular failure mode.

Hope this helps others with this 'Access denied' issue.

I think mkly published a howto about jobs setting a user for environment only purposes, so allowing access where jobs run into permissions code.
