Custom module won't run

    Hi,

    I tried writing a custom module for the Task Scheduler plugin by basically copy/pasting the code as given in “Other Notes” into my theme’s functions.php (tried both with include and with the class in the same file) and adding a wp_mail into the doAction() function for testing.

    Now I can select the module when setting up a new task, but no matter how I set the interval/time, the module never gets called. When I click “Run now”, it apparently gets called, but never runs — the routine says:

    Task name:
    * Routine instance of my_custom_action
    Details:
    * Occurrence: Volatile
    * Action: Sample Action Module
    Status:
    * Awaiting
    * No thread
    * Elapsed 11 minutes (say)
    Last run:
    * 2016/07/21 12:29:08
    Next Run
    * 2016/07/21 12:29:08
    * Call Count: 2
    * Run Count: 0

    The exact values may of course differ, depending on when and how often I clicked “Run now”. Also, in the Tasks overview, the “Next run” keeps hanging on the time I initially set, even if it’s long overdue.

    Do you have any idea what could be causing that issue?

    All the best and thanks in advance
    Sebastian

    Hi,

    Try with the exact example code without changing the code first. It uses the which uses the TaskScheduler_Debug::log() method which creates a log file in wp-content directory. Then see if the task runs fine and a log file gets created.

    Hey, thanks a lot for the quick reply! :-) I figured the problem was that the plugin couldn’t hook to the server heartbeat — in the settings, last heartbeat always said n/a –, so I tried it an a different server and everything worked as expected.

    So it’s most probably just a problem with the server; I’ll ask the admins next week and report back.

    Thanks for sharing this plugin BTW, very useful indeed! :-)

    No problem. Glad you find it useful!

    Hi! I have the same problem: last heartbeat says n/a and the status of my task routine is “Awating”. How can I solve this?

    @seilyvanessa Maybe try unchecking the URL option. If it does not work, decrease/increase the Interval option value.
