Nextcloud version (eg, 29.0.5): 29.0.6
Operating system and version (eg, Ubuntu 24.04): Ubuntu 23.10
Apache or nginx version (eg, Apache 2.4.25): Apache 2.4.57
PHP version (eg, 8.3): 8.2.10

I have this message about crontab: Last background job execution ran 3 months ago. Something seems wrong. Check the background job settings.

If I type the command crontab -e -u www-data I have this command at the end: */5 * * * * php8.2 -f /var/www/html/nextcloud/cron.php

Checking the logs I have this: Error
Class “OC\BackgroundJob\TimedJob” not found

How can I fix this issue???

The issue appears to be because you have the Backup app force enabled. It isn’t released for v29: Backup - Apps - App Store - Nextcloud

Disable the app.

I have not that app installed. What about me?

I’ve found the app that caused the issue and disabled it. Now it works!
