Setting Cron job to delete file after 24 hours

I read all the related questions and was unable to understand them. I am using Plesk CPanel to set cron job as it was advised by everyone. I want to delete all files from a folder after 24 hours. Assume that I have to delete it after every 2 mins (So I can check its working or not). I have two options: - Either run a PHP file that deletes all files after 24 hours using a cron job - Use the cron job command `rm` to delete all the files I tried both ways and was unable to get my task completed. Here is the pic of cpanel scheduled task: http://i41.tinypic.com/2n0tsfs.png I want to delete files from folder `var/www/example.com/public/js/complied`. All files inside this `complied` folder should be deleted. I don't know which to write in Command textfield. Should I use the following command? ``` rm /var/www/example.com/public/js/compiled/*.* ``` Or should I execute a php file? ``` env php -q/var/www/example.com/public/js/cron.php ``` The source code of this Cron.php is: ``` <?php $dir = "compiled"; // directory name foreach (scandir($dir) as $item) { if ($item == '.' || $item == '..') continue; unlink($dir.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.$item); echo "All files deleted"; } //rmdir($dir); ?> ``` I have tested this code and it works fine. Thanks in advance.
