How to temporarily run file in app directory in Magento?

Question

I have file in app/code/local/MyModule/SalesXLSXExport/model/cron.php

This file is run every day with cron:

0 8,15 * * php -f /var/www/website/app/code/local/MyModule/SalesXLSXExport/model/observer.php >/dev/null 2>&1

and its working, but I would like to modify file and I want to run in browser this file, http://example.com/app/code/local/MyModule/SalesXLSXExport/model/cron.php but I have warning 401 forbidden. How to unblock this temporarily?

You probably have a .htaccess file located in the /app directory. Have a look at it, and check if it Denys access to all :-) — Jonas m, Oct 02 '15 at 09:15
Yes @Jonasm ! ;-) I have not noticed htaccess in /app directory... ;-) Thanks ;) — Karol Białkowski, Oct 02 '15 at 10:13

I think this is invalid way to run module's cron.

You can refer following for basic module with cron.
