Not exactly, my schedule exists it just never runs, although I noticed something weird, for some reason my playbooks run at like 12:45 while I set it run on 9:45 and I set the 9:45 5 minutes before and semaphore said next run in 5 minutes but in never actually run.
I think i found the problem but not sure how to fix it. It seems it is using the RTC time to actually check when to execute schedules instead of the local time. Even tho the GUI says within x amount of time. I believe the GUI is based on the local time but the actually cron task is based on the RTC time. I have tested this on my installation and it seems to check out. When i set a task for lets say 01:00 it executes when RTC time is 01:00.
Edit: It appears adding TZ=yourtimezone in docker compose fixes this issue.
Example: environment: - TZ=Europe/Paris
@steveiliop56, @Divide1990, @gaeldb,
Heh, I've been wrestling with the same or similar issues. If I set up a schedule, which should then run, it never runs. I've got two different installations, both use OS packages (.deb and .rpm) and both exhibit the same problem. I've played around with the times in which cron should execute the tasks, but nothing I do seems to help.
In the outline above, local timezone vs. RTC vs. UTC, etc. shouldn't matter if I create a scheduled task two days from now. Still, it doesn't work. I've verified that the task runs just fine by manually triggering it. On one of my instances I've also set up an alert mechanism that pings an external Gotify server as the last task in the playbook. So, it should trigger a "success" message whenever the schedule task runs, but it never does. It does work when I run in manually, though, so I know that's also working.
As of writing, I'm running Semaphore v2.10.35 on both my instances.
Did anyone of you ever figure this one out?
