Cron not working after adding Redis

ℹ️ Support

I have been working on this for about a week.

This is the current error for cron Some jobs have not been executed since 4 days ago. Please consider increasing the execution frequency.

I used portainer with the following. cron was working before I added redis. I ran this sudo crontab -u www-data -e and added */5 * * * * php -f /var/www/nextcloud/cron.php–define apc.enable_cli=1

container

version: '2'

volumes:
  nextcloud:

php -f /var/www/nextcloud/cron.php –define apc.enable_cli=1

(should be a space)

You might also check your system cron logs and your nextcloud.log

Thanks, I made that update to crontab. one thing I noticed is if I run sudo docker exec -u www-data nextcloud-app-1 php /var/www/html/cron.php on the host the cursor moves to the next line but nothing happens. I am seeing a lot of cron information in the nextcloud logs so it appears to be running. Is there a different place I need to updated to include --define apc.enable.cli=1?

I can see cron jobs ran in the logs. I still see Some jobs have not been executed since 5 days ago. Please consider increasing the execution frequency.
