Issue Error with sheduled task

regisg

Regular Pleskian
Hello,

I have sheduled a root task :
Fetch a URL : http://myserver/folder/file/

In the crontab i can see :
*/5 * * * * /opt/psa/admin/sbin/fetch_url 'http://myserver/folder/file/'

This URL (php script, no html code) works perfectly whith a browser.

But when i use the sheduled task, i have an error :
Task "http://myserver/folder/file/" completed with error in 0 seconds, output:
Url 'http://myserver/folder/file/' fetched
Status: 404
Output:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>404 Not Found</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Not Found</h1>
<p>The requested URL /folder/file/ was not found on this server.</p>
<hr>
<address>Apache Server at ns345221.ip-5-196-79.eu Port 80</address>
</body></html>

Please could you help me ?

Thanks a lot :)
 
The syntax of the statement is correct.

To find out why your server is returning a 404, check the error_log of the website from where you are trying to get the data. It is possible that a rewrite configuration on that site detects that the request is not coming from an ordinary browser.
