I’ve used this plugin many times and just installed it on a new website but get the message below when I try to run the job. Do you know why this is happening?

Thanks!

It looks like that you have a restriction to wp-cron.php in your .htacsses or throw a plugin. what happends if you open a browser and got to domain.tld/wp-cron.php ?

Nothing comes up. Is it supposed to be http://domain.com.tld/wp-cron.php ? I tried it without the .com as well and nothing came up.

Pleas ask you hoster if loopback connections are allowed.
Or did you have a restriction to wp-cron.php in you .htacsses or a securty plugin installed?

Same problem here. When I manually open …wp-cron.php in the browser it gives me a 403. What exactly should I look for to solve this?
—EDIT—
just checked via FTP the file has permissions 644. Is that correct?

Did you have a security Plugin installed ?
