Minor issue with restart schedule
Discussed in https://github.com/mbround18/valheim-docker/discussions/1242
Originally posted by Phillip-Ian September 6, 2025 Server works great...easy setup, good performance, well done, team! I'm seeing a really minor thing though - Restart / Update crontab jobs don't seem to be following my schedule.
Here's what I have in the environment:
AUTO_UPDATE 1
AUTO_UPDATE_SCHEDULE "0 4 * * *"
SCHEDULED_RESTART 0
SCHEDULED_RESTART_SCHEDULE 0 2 * * *
TZ "America/New_York"
Perhaps I'm misinterpreting things, but in my webhook I see the server restarting at midnight local. That's not quite late enough for me sometimes, so it gets skipped when I'm online. No biggie, but what could I have done wrong?
The fix for this is not use the cronjobs but rather use the cron utility from gsm
