implementing Laravel 8 queue jobs processing and handling timeouts on long-running tasks
I'm wondering if anyone has experience with Hey everyone, I'm running into an issue that's driving me crazy. I've searched everywhere and can't find a clear answer... I'm currently working with an scenario with queue jobs in Laravel 8 when processing long-running tasks. I have a job that makes an external API call and processes the response, but it often times out. The job is set to run in the background using the `queue:work` command, but I keep getting the following behavior message: ``` [2023-10-10 12:00:00] production.behavior: Job [App\Jobs\ProcessData] failed: TimeoutException: The job exceeded the time limit of 60 seconds. ``` I've tried increasing the timeout by setting the `timeout` property on the job class to 120 seconds, like this: ```php public $timeout = 120; ``` Additionally, I adjusted the `queue.connection` settings in `config/queue.php` to include: ```php 'timeout' => 120, 'retry_after' => 90, ``` However, the job still encounters the timeout after 60 seconds. I also checked the supervisor configuration: ```bash [program:laravel-worker] process_name=%(program_name)s_%(process_num)02d command=php /path/to/artisan queue:work --timeout=120 autostart=true autorestart=true user=youruser numprocs=1 redirect_stderr=true stdout_logfile=/path/to/your/worker.log ``` Despite these settings, the job still times out at the original 60 seconds. I’ve also verified that the server's PHP `max_execution_time` is set to 120 seconds in the `php.ini` file. Can anyone guide to understand what might be overriding my timeout settings or if there's something I’m missing in configuring Laravel jobs to handle longer processing times more effectively? Any suggestions would be appreciated! I'm working on a API that needs to handle this. How would you solve this? Any ideas how to fix this? I'm coming from a different tech stack and learning Php. Thanks for your help in advance!
