Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.I enable MultiPing on the Ping on Cron Run and I can not run Cron manually anymore. Disabling Ping on Cron and Enabling Ping after blog post seems to eliminate this problem.
Can't wait for the finished product!!! Multi-Ping keeps my pages way high up in the search ranks. Thanks!!!

Second, I find that if I turn off, uninstall and delete the stock Drupal Ping module then all is well. If not MultiPing certainly does interfere somehow in Cron runs. Also I set it to ping after post and not cron run.

voxpelli CreditAttribution: voxpelli commentedWhat do you mean by it not running anymore? Is it running for too long? With so many ping services we might need to add a system for just pinging a few of them each time.
Can you test if this is still a problem with the new beta?

Treidge CreditAttribution: Treidge commentedJust ran into the same problem with latest 6.x-1.x-dev version of Multiping. After I enabled this module Cron can't be triggered anymore.
What I did:
1. Enabled Multiping.
2. Checked if Cron can be triggered - right after module was enabled it's still works properly.
3. Waited for scheduled Cron Job - right after that time Watchdog log says that "Cron run exceeded the time limit and was aborted."
4. From this moment manual request to /cron.php throws 404 error and Cron can't be triggered manually or by server on scheduled job.
Cache clearing did not take any effect. If disable Multiping - Cron starts to work properly without any additional actions. Also I didn't see any dependence on Multiping settings.

dgtlmoon CreditAttribution: dgtlmoon commentedMy guess is that what ever service you are hitting is timing out and causing everything to wait for that call.
drupal_http_request which does the XMLRPC heavy work does not have support for timeouts in 6, but does in 7.

Please check all your services are responsive (you may have to go through them by hand)

voxpelli CreditAttribution: voxpelli commentedThis should be fixed in the new 7.x-2.x version as that uses the queue system that was introduced in Drupal 7 to avoid trying to do too much in a single cron run.
