Magento – Magento 1.9.1 Notifications (Emails, Newsletters) not send

email-reminders

I am having Magento 1.9.1 with cron setup and triggered fine! When i place a new order i am not receiving any emails (not admin not customer). I have tried all possible commands:

*/5 * * * * /bin/sh MAGENTO_PATH/cron.sh
*/5 * * * * /bin/bash MAGENTO_PATH/cron.sh
*/5 * * * * /usr/bin/php MAGENTO_PATH/cron.php
*/5 * * * * /usr/local/bin/php -f MAGENTO_PATH/cron.php

Do the .sh script need any modification?? Do i miss anything else?

I had the same issue. I guess its bug from Magento 1.8~1.9.1.

Try this. Open the file cron.php in the root directory of Magento and look for (around line 47):

$isShellDisabled = (stripos(PHP_OS, ‘win’) === false) ? $isShellDisabled : true;

After this line, add:

$isShellDisabled = true;

Save the file. After a couple minutes the cron should start working.

From this I fixed the newsletter and for emails use this extension: http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/smtp-pro-email-free-custom-smtp-email.html
