The Scheduler shell script
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The Scheduler provides a PHP shell script designed to be run using
TYPO3's command-line dispatcher. To try and run that script a first
time, type the following command (adapting the path to PHP and TYPO3
to match your system):

::

   /usr/local/bin/php /home/bob/www/typo3/cli_dispatch.phpsh scheduler

If the "cli\_scheduler" user was not created, this will result in the
following error:

::

   ERROR: No backend user named "_cli_scheduler" was found! [Database: my_typo3_database]

If the user exists, you should see nothing, as the Scheduler doesn't
give any visual feedback while running.
