Sometimes scheduled tasks fail. It’s happening more often than we think.
By adding “emailOutputOnFailure” to your scheduled task you’ll be notified with the output when it fails.

Additionally I like to add “withoutOverlapping” to it, just in case the task takes longer than expected.

I’ve also tweeted about this:

?#Laravel | What if a scheduled task fails… Did you know you could add “emailOutputOnFailure” to you task, by doing so you’ll receive an email with the output when it fails. I also like to add “withoutOverlapping” just in case your task takes longer than expected.#devops pic.twitter.com/SobIhS0lmX
