Hi Tim
In crontabs, it is always advisable to specify the full path to any
executables. ie:
*/5 * * * * /path/to/wget -q -O /dev/null
http://example.com/moodle/admin/cron.php
However note that Mac OS X no longer ships with wget. You could either
install wget, or use /usr/bin/curl instead.
Hope this helps
