Could not find a binary for md5sum

[amcguireweb]

Hello - I'm trying to configure the cron to run locally on my Mac using Valet Plus. I am emailing myself via the crontab and continue to get the error "Could not find a binary for md5sum." Not sure how to resolve. I have installed md5sum.

Using Valet Plus for my local environment, Mac is on Mojave 10.14.2. Thanks for your time.

It looks like for Mojave, Full Disk Access prevents you from changing system files (which includes privacy related data as well as system configuration like the crontabs).

In order to resolve the error, I also had to change line 86 of scheduler_cron.sh from
MD5SUM_BIN=$(which md5sum || true)
to
MD5SUM_BIN="/usr/local/bin/md5sum"

After enabling Full Disk Access for Mojave and updating the path for md5sum, the error for md5sum stopped but I began getting the following error:

Changing the host value from localhost to 127.0.0.1 in local.xml resolved this error and cron seems to now be working.

I ended up copying the contents of scheduler_cron.sh to a new file named local_scheduler_cron.sh in the root of Magento, making the above changes, added the new local file to my .gitignore, and modified my local crontab to call the local bash script instead. Now it's working locally and on our development and production instances.
