Is there a fix to have no pending jobs in Queue?

3

Hi,

Have you configured the queue:work cron to process the jobs?

4

I’ve checked it. Actually only this is active:
cd /home/www/invoice && /usr/bin/php -d register_argc_argv=On artisan schedule:run

Now I added a new cronj cd /home/www/invoice && /usr/bin/php -d register_argc_argv=On artisan queue:work database --stop-when-emptyob:

Hope this works now.
Thank you for your help :heart:

Hi! :slight_smile:
I use a cronjob with following command:
cd /home/www/invoice && /usr/bin/php -d register_argc_argv=On artisan queue:work --stop-when-empty

I receive a e-mail, when the job is finished, with this details:

But still 5 jobs are pending:

It’s a shared hosting.
Am I mistaken in thinking that it won’t work?

Or can you give me a hint as to how to solve this?

Are you able to test the cron from the command line?

7

Yes, you can see it here.

But after finishing this job, the queue is still pending:

Or, did I have to implement the following command into a cronjob?

php artisan queue:work database --queue=scout

I believe it’s correct, have you seen the docs:

Are there any errors in storage/logs?

10

Yes, create a cron job

0 * * * * php /usr/share/nginx/invoiceninja/artisan queue:work database --queue=scout

Not really, there are 2 old error messages:

[2025-05-06 20:31:23] production.ERROR: No application encryption key has been specified. {“exception”:"[object] (Illuminate\Encryption\MissingAppKeyException(code: 0): No application encryption key has been specified. at /home/www/invoice/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Encryption/EncryptionServiceProvider.php:83)
[stacktrace]

And this one:

[2025-05-12 11:31:02] production.ERROR: Elastic\Elasticsearch\ClientBuilder::setBasicAuthentication(): Argument #1 ($username) must be of type string, null given, called in /home/www/invoice/vendor/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/src/ClientBuilder.php on line 168 {“exception”:"[object] (TypeError(code: 0): Elastic\Elasticsearch\ClientBuilder::setBasicAuthentication(): Argument #1 ($username) must be of type string, null given, called in /home/www/invoice/vendor/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/src/ClientBuilder.php on line 168 at /home/www/invoice/vendor/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/src/ClientBuilder.php:242)

I’m on shared hosting and did’t find no nginx Folder…
Did I have to choose in this case: /usr/bin/php ?

13

cd /home/www/invoice && php artisan queue:work database --queue=scout

I’ve changed the cronjob to this command and it seems that it works for the moment…
…I’m monitoring this case :smiley:
