Cron Magento2 didn't work

Question

I have created a new module with my crontab.xml :

<config>
    <group id="default">
        <job name="order_read" instance="Cincuenta\CronOrders\Model\Orders" method="readOrders">
            <schedule>*/5 * * * *</schedule>
        </job>
    </group>
</config>

Also i got a CronOrders/Model/Orders.php with the function :

public function readOrders(){


        $writer = new \Zend\Log\Writer\Stream(BP . '/var/log/loggy.log');
        $logger = new \Zend\Log\Logger();
        $logger->addWriter($writer);
        $logger->info('LOG1');
...

I had try to run by command with

php bin/magento cron:run

and

php bin/magento cron:run --group:"default"

But the log is not been created. I also tested my log code and it runs in others functions well.

Any error with the crons in Magento 2 or I'm missing something?

Answer 1

You can use magerun for testing out your cron code.

Just download it to the root folder of your project and then run

php n98-magerun2.phar sys:cron:list to get a list of all registered crons

php n98-magerun2.phar sys:cron:run [cron code] to run a specific cron job

It has all sort of magento2 utility commands as well, just run

php n98-magerun2.phar to get a list of all available commands

Hope this helps !!

Answer 2

Okay i missed some code on crontab.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Cron:etc/crontab.xsd">
    <group id="default">
        <job name="order_read" instance="Cincuenta\CronOrders\Model\Orders" method="readOrders">
            <schedule>*/5 * * * *</schedule>
        </job>
    </group>
</config>

I added in <config> this line:

xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Cron:etc/crontab.xsd
