Regarding task:

Command: nohup php PATH/artisan queue:work --daemon &
Schedule: After server reboot
Owner: redacted (non-root user)


I've scheduled above task, for first time to run, I clicked on Run now from actions. After server reboot, the task message is showing Status: Processing but inside process manager I cannot see the process. So I again click on Run Now from action.
Now it showing two messages but in process manager only one process is running.



I clicked on "Click here to remove all pending and finished tasks at once." but still showing this messages.

Why do you use nohup?
Are you in fear that the local shell loses connection to the host?

And: Remove the ampersand, that sends the process to the background. Probably not what the scheduler expects.

Edit: nohup was a workaround for unreliable dialup connections, later replaced by screen and even later tmux.

In a local environment you don't need it.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.

But I have to run that task at background that's why I used &.

As I can't glimpse through the code, i just can guess: Scheduled task might always be running in the background.

Did you try it without the ampersand?

None of my background tasks scheduled via keyHelp have the ampersand.
