Nextcloud version (eg, 20.0.5): 24.0.7
Operating system and version (eg, Ubuntu 20.04): Ubuntu 22.04.1
Apache or nginx version (eg, Apache 2.4.25): 2.4.52
PHP version (eg, 7.4): 8.1.2

The issue you are facing: My Cron Job is not running every 5 minutes like I have it set to.

Is this the first time you’ve seen this error? (N):

Steps to replicate it:

1. Change it to Cron in Settings>Basic Settings instead of Ajax
2. Switch it back to Ajax after the Cron job does not run in 5 minutes
3. Manually run Cron Job to complete and move it back to Cron Job to see if it will work and it does not.
