#Schedules are running endlessly from the future after daylight savings time change

All servers with a schedule are running endlessly at random intervals. This would result in repeat schedules when not scheduled. This has started since daylight savings time change.

No logs from Laravel show anything odd to report.

I have performed the following to resolve this issue:

  • Restarted pteroq
  • Restarted wings
  • Restarted nginx
  • Refreshed the Artisan config with php artisan config:clear
  • Fully reboot the Linux server that Panel is running on (the webserver and game node are separate machines)

All of which to no avail to resolve the issue.

I think this is a bug with Artisan queue workers as a lot of those workers results in a lot of failures. I cannot confirm why it is this but running the service command on its own, it for sure outputs a lot of errors.

   INFO  Processing jobs from the [high,standard,low] queues.

What might also be related is the server time zone is in UTC, however the Laravel app time zone is in Eastern time. (America/Indiana/Indianapolis, to be exact) Unsure if related. Wings server is also UTC.

Web server is running:

  • Panel 1.11.7
  • Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS
  • NGINX 1.24.0-2ubuntu7.1
  • PHP 8.3.6

I think I found a fix, albeit this is just immediate testing.

Check if your .env that APP_TIMEZONE matches your:

  • System with timedatectl
  • Wings config in /etc/pterodactyl/config.yml
  • Bonus points if you also find what your DB time zone is in.

If not, change to where all of it matches.

If you are changing the Laravel .env, change that value to your time zone exactly.

Run php artisan config:clear as this will refresh cache with Laravel. Ensure you are in your panel root directory.

Restart both pteroq and nginx, or full reboot your server. (I didn't bother with restarting services so YMMV).
