Answer 1

Even though the question was posted a while ago, I just had the same problem but found a solution (based on Kissaki's answer, thanks!) and thought I'd post it here for anyone still looking for a possible solution.

Prerequisites:

• SSH access
• Python

Code (python):

from subprocess import call
import time
while True:
    call(["php","cron.php"])
    time.sleep(120)
