Info
titleLicense Information

If you do not have a license key, you will be able to activate a free trial during the installation process directly. If you have previously purchased a license key, you will be able to enter it during the installation process. You may obtain a license directly from us at www.blesta.com, from one of our resellers, or directly from your hosting provider. Version 2 license keys are not compatible with version 3, so if you only have a version 2 license key you will need to request a version 3 key for each version 2 license you hold.

4. Set up a Cron Job

Once installation is complete, a cron job must be created to automate tasks within Blesta. Go to [Settings] > [System] > Automation, and copy the "Cron Command", for use in creating a cron job on your server. Most hosting control panels provide an easy way to create cron jobs, follow the documentation for your control panel to complete this important step. The cron job should run every 5 minutes. Once the cron has been configured, verify that the status icon turns green and displays the last time run on the System Automation page within Blesta.
