Cron.php output

Nextcloud version (eg, 20.0.5): 22.1.1.
Operating system and version (eg, Ubuntu 20.04): Webhostiung allinkl
Apache or nginx version (eg, Apache 2.4.25): replace me
PHP version (eg, 7.4): 7.4

Hi,
running the cron.php via my webhosting server works, gives me the following output.

Returncode: 2
Ausgabe des Scripts:

Array
(
    [0] => [...]/nextcloud/cron.php: line 1: ?php: No such file or directory
    [1] =>  [...]/nextcloud/cron.php: line 2: /**: No such file or directory
    [2] =>  [...]/nextcloud/cron.php: line 3: syntax error near unexpected token `('
    [3] =>  [...]/nextcloud/cron.php: line 3: ` * @copyright Copyright (c) 2016, ownCloud, Inc.'
)

Is this something to worry?
In Nextcloud admin panel the execution on background jobs seems not to be registered.

Thanks for help
Best
Simon

Please post your cron entry. I think you missed the word php

Hi,
I followed this instruction.
grafik

This code/file is called without any further parameters

Where shall I include your code ?

Thanks for your help!

the last one with php, and the path is /path/to/nextcloud/cron.php (you have to place the correct path instead of /path/to/nextcloud)
