How to run artisan command schedule:run on hosting server? (Laravel)

Question

I have statusUpdate.php file in the xampp\htdocs\project\app\Console\Commands folder.

statusUpdate.php :

<?php

namespace App\Console\Commands;

use Illuminate\Console\Command;
use DB;


class statusUpdate extends Command
{
    /**
     * The name and signature of the console command.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $signature = 'status:update';

/**
 * The console command description.
 *
 * @var string
 */
protected $description = 'Update Job status daily';

/**
 * Create a new command instance.
 *
 * @return void
 */
public function __construct()
{
    parent::__construct();
}

/**
 * Execute the console command.
 *
 * @return mixed
 */
public function handle()
{
    $affected = DB::table('jobs')->update(array('status' => 1));
}
}

It is created by the following Laravel official documentation. Then I was added \App\Console\Commands\statusUpdate::class, class in Kernel.php on xampp\htdocs\project\app\Console folder.

Here is the karnel.php file code:

<?php

namespace App\Console;

use Illuminate\Console\Scheduling\Schedule;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Console\Kernel as ConsoleKernel;

class Kernel extends ConsoleKernel
{
    /**
     * The Artisan commands provided by your application.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $commands = [
        \App\Console\Commands\statusUpdate::class,
];

/**
 * Define the application's command schedule.
 *
 * @param  \Illuminate\Console\Scheduling\Schedule  $schedule
 * @return void
 */
protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
{
    $schedule->command('status:update')
             ->everyFiveMinutes();
}
}

Then I was run

php artisan schedule:run command using CMD on windows 7.

Now it is working fine(in local server). My jobs table status field is updated properly by 1.

But when I was deployed this project on the shared hosting and added a CRON command for my server in cPanel:

Cron job command is like this : php /path/to/artisan schedule:run 1>> /dev/null 2>&1

Now in this case command not working & this is the problem. how can I solve it?

Solution 1

Well. I am giving you the answer as per what you have said.

Cron job command is like this : php /path/to/artisan schedule:run 1>> /dev/null 2>&1

The path should be locating the artisan file in the server. Like this:

Let's say your artisan file location is /var/www/artisan, then the simple answer could be do like this:

php /var/www/artisan schedule:run 1>> /dev/null 2>&1

Just check if that works. Thank You!

UPDATE:

This is how it should look like.

Solution 2

This worked fine for me

/usr/local/bin/php /path/to/artisan schedule:run >> /dev/null 2>&1

Solution 3

You should add the command from the cPanel server as

/usr/local/bin/php /home/xyz/public_html/artisan schedule:run 1>> /home/xyz/public_html/log_laravel 2>&1

This will keep all the logs in /home/xyz/public_html/log_laravel

Running scheduled command: '/opt/cpanel/ea-php71/root/usr/bin/php' 'artisan' SyncAPIOrders:orders > '/dev/null' 2>&1

In my case cron Job was not working, if you are about to schedule the command as once a day (i.e., 00:00) iff, same time is not reflected in a $schedule->command(); object

If the commands were incorrect, I used to get this warning in my Email as

PHP Warning:  Module 'magickwand' already loaded in Unknown on line 0
Status: 404 Not Found
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.6.37
Content-type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

No input file specified.

In Kernel.php you should specify

/**
 * Define the application's command schedule.
 *
 * @param  \Illuminate\Console\Scheduling\Schedule  $schedule
 * @return void
 */
protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
{
    $schedule->command('SyncAPIOrders:orders')
               ->timezone('Asia/Kolkata')
               ->dailyAt('00:00');
}

what is the different between my command php /path/to/artisan schedule:run 1>> /dev/null 2>&1 and your command php /var/www/artisan schedule:run 1>> /dev/null 2>&1! i already give my correct path in command.

[Aditya Giri]

Well both are same. Let's say that you are running a server with Linux Environment. path/to/artisan means that you are linking to something like D:\xampp\path\to\artisan and obviously that is not the thing that you are looking for. You are linking to a file that never existed there. It will definitely work if you change the filepath. Tell me your project root directory path and I will tell you the correct command that you should input.

/home/belogin/public_html/jobssite/ this my path and and I tried using this /home/belogin/public_html/jobssite/artisan schedule:run 1>> /dev/null 2>&1 but not works.

[Aditya Giri]

Well I had a look at the documentation and the query should be like: * * * * * php /home/belogin/public_html/jobssite/artisan schedule:run 1>> /dev/null 2>&1

[Inspire Shahin]

ok. when I give * * * * * php /home/belogin/public_html/jobssite/artisan schedule:run 1>> /dev/null 2>&1 in command box. it show bad command can't install in cron :( because I already give time using another option.

[Aditya Giri]

Well sorry. In your cron jobs do something like what I say. I am uploading one pic.

[Inspire Shahin]

Ok. But your instruction are very helpful for me.

[Inspire Shahin]

When I add cron using URL and URL hit my method it works fine.

[Aditya Giri]

Great to hear that. Did my answer help?

[Aditya Giri]

And yeah using URL means in what way? If you can hit your URL, then there is a great chance to hack your website.

[Aditya Giri]

Mark as answer if that helped you!
