How to get my queue:work to work on digital ocean server

Question

i have a laravel project where i implemented queue, on my local server everything works fine, if i run php artsan queue:work, it processes my jobs, but on digital ocean server, it doesnt work, if i run the same command, my terminal does nothing, i have tried everything possible, its not still working, i have setup supervisor, but its not processing anything, if i run queue:listen, queue:work nothing happens, is there something blocking my queue from starting?

this happened to me some time ago on my local machine, but cant remember how it worked again then

i have been on this for 3days now no success

on my local machine it works fine, but on digital ocean the queue command doesnt work

things that i have done already

i install supervisor, supervisor works well with no error, but doesnt process queue jobs

my broadcast driver is set to database

i hv migrated the jobs table

Answer 1

I have resolved this myself, let me post how i got this working, in case someone encounters such in the feature

the php artisan queue:work; was returning nothing on the terminal while it was logging the error in my laravel.log file the error was that a column in the jobs table has exceeded 127 because it has been tried 128 times, i cleared the jobs table, run queue, this time I added tries=3, and all jobs failed after 3 retrials, so checking the log file, showed me errors that caused jobs to fail, fixing those error made my app to work well

Answer 2

Incase if someone else is experiencing this in Digital Ocean App platform

in the worker use specify the queue and it will start to work for example

php artisan queue:work --queue=data,default,admin,integration &
