WP Cron failed to complete

    I have been receiving WP Cron Failed To Complete emails daily for about 10 days now for a single cron event:

    mepr_reminders_worker (A MemberPress plugin event. MP not experiencing this on other sites)

    The Cron Status for the last 3 runs typically reports a half dozen cron events completed and one failure for mepr_reminders_worker.

    I’ve consulted with both MP and our host, Siteground. We’ve completed all of the troubleshooting we can think of:

    * replaced the WP cron with server based cron executing every half hour
    * enabled PHP_errorlog for logging

    The host cron runs every half hour like clockwork and is confirmed by Cron Status which continues to show the single failure. PHP_errorlog contains just two older messages and no cron event failures are being posted.

    Need some help on this please.

    Further to my earlier post, I ran a test intended to trigger an email notification from mepr_reminders_worker on the cron execution at 12:30. The email arrived. Cron Status shows that the mepr_reminders_worker event failed.

    Sorry that you’re having a problem with your cron events. This doesn’t sound like it’s related to the WP Crontrol plugin as this plugin doesn’t run events, it just tells you which events are scheduled.

    Thank you. Aside from indicating the events which are scheduled, it informs success and failure. How and from where is it collecting success/failure notice?

    It doesn’t show success and failure. Are you sure you have the correct plugin?

    I followed the Details link from the plugin here so I’m pretty certain I have the right plugin. This is the page which shows “Completed” and “Failed” for each “Hook Name”

    That page URL isn’t from this plugin. Sorry!

    Oops, I’d missed the second WP Cron plugin which is Status Checker. I apologize. Thanks for the help and the plugin.
