Schedule stops working now and then

[Christian Nybroe]

Hi
We have a scheduled import that works – most of the times.
Fetch is set to every 5 min, but now and then it simply stops running my script for several days.
Can I somehow see a log file or simular that will help me figuring out why the schedule simply stops?
Any ideas?

Hi Christian,

The scheduling of events is all handled by WordPress.

By default WordPress uses a psuedo-cron which means its not particularly accurate (especially if you have very few visitors). I would have expected that once you logged-into the site it should have triggered.

You could try adding some logging:

add_action( 'eventorganiser_ical_feed_sync', function(){
   error_log("ical sync cron callback called");
}, 5 );

Try that with WP_DEBUG and WP_DEUB_LOG set to true.
