Manual:manageJobs.php

MediaWiki file: manageJobs.php
Location:	maintenance/
Source code:	master • 1.43.0 • 1.42.4 • 1.39.11
Classes:	ManageJobs

Details

manageJobs.php is a maintenance script to manually either delete jobs from the Job queue or put abandoned jobs back into circulation. Note that, while the script can put abandoned jobs back into circulation, it won't execute them. Use runJobs.php for that.

Options/Arguments

Option/parameter	Description	Required?
--action	Options delete – to delete the jobs from the job table repush-abandoned – to put abandoned jobs back into circulation	Required
--type	Must be one of the job types, typically the ones listed when you run showJobs.php --group .	Required

Usage

php maintenance/run.php manageJobs [ --action | --type ]

Both parameters are mandatory.

In MediaWiki version 1.39.10 and earlier, you must invoke maintenance scripts using php maintenance/scriptName.php instead of php maintenance/run.php scriptName.

First find what job types are abandoned with showJobs.php :

Terminal

$ php maintenance/run.php showJobs --group

refreshLinks: 0 queued; 38 claimed (0 active, 38 abandoned); 0 delayed
refreshLinksPrioritized: 0 queued; 992 claimed (22 active, 970 abandoned); 0 delayed
refreshLinksDynamic: 0 queued; 132 claimed (0 active, 132 abandoned); 0 delayed

Then add abandoned jobs back into circulation with --action repush-abandoned:

Terminal

$ php maintenance/run.php manageJobs --type refreshLinks --action repush-abandoned

Last re-push time: 19700101000001; current time: 20211111104139
Re-pushed 0 job(s) [0 skipped].

Then you can run runJobs.php to actually execute them.
