Hi,

I’m running NC 13.0.4 and cannot confirm your issue. I successfully run the following cronjobs:
*/30 * * * * php -f /var/www/nextcloud/occ activity:send-mails hourly
0 12 * * * php -f /var/www/nextcloud/occ activity:send-mails daily
0 18 * * FRI php -f /var/www/nextcloud/occ activity:send-mails weekly

Even running
sudo -u http php /var/www/nextcloud/occ activity:send-mails
doesn’t through any error messages.

For me this message indicates, that the activity app is not installed/ enabled currently.
Could you check that please?

Thanks, that was the trick :slight_smile:
