• I setup a CRON job to update my links, but get either of the following two error messages:

    ERROR 1
    <br />
    <b>Warning</b>: fsockopen(): unable to connect to api.pingomatic.com:80 in <b>/home/USERNAME/public_html/wp-admin/update-links.php</b> on line <b>26</b><br />

    ERROR 2
    <HTML>
    <HEAD><TITLE>An Error Occurred</TITLE></HEAD>
    <BODY>
    <H1>An Error Occurred</H1>
    500 read timeout
    </BODY>
    </HTML>

    Does this have something to do with the job I setup or something more to it?

    Thanks for the info. As this was the first time I had setup something like this… wasn’t too sure what was causing the problem (especially with the two different errors).

    Is a fix expected anytime soon now? My mailbox is filling kinda fast, so I’m thinking I might hack out the error message otherwise.
