I guess the odd thing that got me looking is that the top of the wp-cron.php file looks like this:

<?php
/**

• A pseudo-cron daemon for scheduling WordPress tasks.
  *
• WP-Cron is triggered when the site receives a visit. In the scenario
• where a site may not receive enough visits to execute scheduled tasks
• in a timely manner, this file can be called directly or via a server
• cron daemon for X number of times.
  *
• Defining DISABLE_WP_CRON as true and calling this file directly are
• mutually exclusive and the latter does not rely on the former to work.
  *
• The HTTP request to this file will not slow down the visitor who happens to
• visit when a scheduled cron event runs.
  *
• @package WordPress
  */

ignore_user_abort( true );

and it looks as though the cron process is reading its own script and generaing the errors as it tries to execute each line?

/home/www//wp-cron.php: line 1: ?php: No such file or directory
/home/www//wp-cron.php: line 2: /bin: Is a directory
/home/www//wp-cron.php: line 3: bin: command not found

There appears to be no webhost cron, just what is in WordPress.

I do see this inthe log. The actual email I get is always at 10 minutes past the hour.

I seem to have found the problem.

I logged in as Admin and installed the plugin USER ROLE EDITOR.

I compared the Admin user who could log in with the one who could not. The one who could no was missing READ. When I added that capability, he could log in and see the Dashboard.

I have had problems in the past when updating PHP versions and things still don’t work.

It turned out there was a file in my directory telling the server to use a specific version of PHP which overrides any other configuration I made.

It may have been in .htaccess or some other file. I’m someone can jump in here with specifics.
