Scheduler does not start

[p44]

Setup Details

• Cloudron version: v8.3.2 (Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS)
• app version: 0.50.38

Issue description

I enabled ’Settings > General > Use time scheduler’

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Go to 'Settings > General > Use time scheduler’
2. Configure ’Schedule time limits”
3. Scrape should start itself

Expected behavior

Scrape should be started but nothing happens. I think - but I’m not sure - this behavior is after 0.50.38 updates.

Screenshots

Additional context

If I restart instance, scrape will be started.

@james It was a bug that has been fixed with 0.50.39.

In changelog I see "Bug fix - scheduler":

I just checked and scheduler is working again as expected.

Thanks for your patience @james

Hello @p44
I think you misunderstood this feature / configuration.
From: https://changedetection.io/tutorial/checking-web-pages-changes-according-schedule

This extends the "Time between recheck" functionality with a schedule that you can limit the checks to.
for example you only want to recheck your favourite news website during office hours

If I understand this correctly, your settings would mean.
Only check Tuesday to Saturday from 04:00 to 12:00 and since above you have set Days 1 it would only check once within that timeframe.
Which is also confirmed by the linked tutorial:

For example, if you combine a "Time between recheck" of 1 days, and then click the "BUSINESS HOURS" shortcut, it will automatically configure a time schedule that runs from 09:00 for 8 hours (until 17:00h), and since you have "recheck" time set to 1 days, it means it will only check once per day at 09:00.

So I've tested this with the following settings now:

So now, every minute a check should be done until 05:00 PM / 17:00.

Which is confirmed it has been checked right now:

and should stop checking at 05:00 PM / 17:00.

and indeed after 17:00 the checking stops:

@james

is long time that I use that feature but it seems not working anymore since three or four days.

User guide is very very clear and before it was working according to configuration setup guide.

Giving a look on GitHub someone also had the same problem:
https://github.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io/issues/3593 but then discussion has been closed.

I don’t have any log and no any error showed.

Only when restarting instance, check works again.

To reproduce issue please try to copy my configuration above in screenshot.

• Time between check: 1 day
• Start at 4:00 AM for 8 hours.

Purpose of my configuration is to check changes only once on 4:00 AM from Tuesday to Friday.

Thanks

I have now set the same settings with the latest version available from the app store.
Will report back tomorrow morning.

Hello @dgtlmoon

Maybe I am understanding the scheduling settings wrong.

The full log since installation can be viewed here: https://file.cloudron.dev/api/v1/shares/sid-0387aa81cfe5d4aa1b40368f38b4004bd7242e862414b781d1fbed7d2d7c8601?type=raw

If you'd like to look at the UI yourself the password is dd6de65db716 and the URL https://io.changedetection.cloudronapp.cloudron.dev/
Here is the replicated setting from this post.

It is the latest version v0.50.39.
From https://changedetection.io/tutorial/checking-web-pages-changes-according-schedule

For example, if you combine a "Time between recheck" of 1 days, and then click the "BUSINESS HOURS" shortcut, it will automatically configure a time schedule that runs from 09:00 for 8 hours (until 17:00h), and since you have "recheck" time set to 1 days, it means it will only check once per day at 09:00.

So I'd expect these setting to have created a check at 04:00 o'clock.
But the last check was a manual one and no sceduled check at 04:00.

But maybe I am just understanding the setting wrong.
Thanks in advance @dgtlmoon
