cron jobs on railway need to run and then exit as soon as possible, otherwise they just simply aren't cron jobs
I don't know what you mean, in Laravel to execute the jobs you need to execute the following command php artisan schedule:run

that's a long running task, you cant use railway cron for that, you'd just have that running as a regular service

as mentioned, in a separate railway service
o saw a templete https://blog.railway.app/p/cron-jobs
is this the service tath you mentioned

that has absolutely nothing to do with anything I've been saying though?

you need to run php artisan schedule:run in a separate railway service, nothing at all to do with cron

create a new service in the project, set any needed service variables, set the start command, attach your github repo

it's ran when the service starts
i now but it need to restart when i need to execute, will the cron job restar automatically the service ?

again, cron has nothing to do with this, it's its own scheduler, I recommend you read the docs on what that command does
ok now I know how it works thanks for the help and sorry for the inconvenience
