Job Queue Entries do not run

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by tdittmar 25

Hello,

I'm trying to schedule a CodeUnit using a Job Queue Entry in Business Central as I'd have done it previously in NAV 2018 for example. I've added the respective Job Queue Entry and set it to "Ready". However, the job never runs. I suspect that I need to enable Job Queue processing somewhere, but I can't find out how to do it. I'm using a Docker container that hosts Business Central.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

    For Docker container, you need to enable EnableTaskScheduler

    Thank you very much, I was able to solve this problem. In case anybody else needs the solution:

    1. Launch PowerShell
    2. Install NavContainerHelper if you haven't done so, yet
    3. Issue the following, replacing <container> with your Docker container name:

    Invoke-ScriptInNavContainer -containername <container> -scriptblock {

        Set-NavServerConfiguration -ServerInstance BC -KeyName EnableTaskScheduler -KeyValue true

        Set-NavServerInstance -ServerInstance BC -restart

    }
