Hi!

Help me solve the problem.

I have Nextcloud running on 29.0.3 in a docker container, and I get the message “Some jobs were not completed 3 days ago. Please consider increasing the frequency of execution.”

I had version 29.0.2 before and there was no such problem. I did an update and now this message has appeared.

My cron service is running, here is the task
*/1 * * * * /usr/local/bin/php -d memory_limit=1024M -f /var/www/html/cron.php >> /tmp/cron1.log

Can you tell me what the problem might be? I looked at similar problems on the forum, but I couldn’t find an answer. I will be very glad for your help

I managed to solve the problem by changing the ‘maintenance_window_start’ parameter from 1 to 100 in config/config.php

After that, I started the cron service manually and the label changed

[yebai_mo]

step 1: docker exec -it nextcloud(your Images’name) bash

step 2: crontab -u www-data -e
or: crontab -e

step 3: */5 * * * * /usr/local/bin/php -f /var/www/html/cron.php(Add)
or: */5 * * * * su -s /bin/bash www-data -c “/usr/local/bin/php -f /var/www/html/cron.php”(Add)

note: your php path must be the reall path,you can use: which php
to check out.

How come this can solve the problem!?
What does ‘maintenance_window_start’ do?
Thank you so much for your solution!
