So I’m currently running a larval site and im running two cron commands.

I run them in the public\_html folder  
sudo php artisan app:sitemap-generate  
sudo php artisan schedule:run  
If i run both the commands within the CLI it works fine

Also if i run them like this in the CLI also works fine

now if i run the same commands in the hestiacp cron page it will not run

I use always:

`cd /home/username/web/website.com/public_html/ && /home/username/web/website.com/public_html/artisan app:sitemap-generate`

And never have an issue
