So I have a magento 2 instance running on ubuntu and I have some confusion about cron jobs. I know that magento 2 needs to have scheduled jobs in order to work correctly, but I am unable to find out how to get it set up correctly. I have read the dev docs, and followed this article. Currently, I'm not getting any errors I can see on the magento side, but I'm having issues with things changing correctly (i.e. changing menu options/product options). I have also changed the Missed if Not Run Within field to be longer than the jobs per this The cron_schedule table has all statuses as missed. I am not trying to do any custom jobs, just whatever default ones it needs to operate.

Run these commands from your Magento directory:

php bin/magento cron:install

php bin/magento cron:run

and check if all jobs are running by schedule.

  • I haven't ran the install command, Let me try that. How do I check if all jobs running by schedule? Is that an option in the admin side or in the database? Thansk Commented Mar 22, 2019 at 16:53
  • I ran both these commands, and in the backend of magento all the indexes say on schedule. However, the database is still saying missed. Commented Mar 22, 2019 at 17:24

Any custom extension installed? If not then please truncate Cron tables and check once by running default Magento Cron command.

  • There is a theme, but no extensions. What does truncate the tables mean? Thanks Commented Mar 22, 2019 at 16:53

    Truncate means just flush existing CRON entries. Query: "TRUNCATE cron_schedule"

  • Would appreciate your input. Does truncating the table mean the jobs will be missed, or would they re-populate and get executed? Commented May 7, 2020 at 7:53
