Hi @h-rafiee,
I am sorry for the problem with your job execution on midnight and I will try to help you. So you scheduled a Cron job for midnight(0 0 * * *) and added this expression to crontab, too. But the job does not run on midnight, but on 05:10:25?

Please check your Laravel timezone in your config/app.php file. This timezone should be the same to your system timezone. Please only use PHP supported timeszones. If this is correct, please change the Cron expression to every minute (* * * * *). Because crontab only runs Cron at midnight, the Cron job should only run once at midnight. While the expression is equals every minute, the Cron job will always run, if Cron is executed. You can also have a look at your Laravel log files. There you find information about Cron.

Another note, you don't have to enable the added Cron job with the function setEnableJob and the job name ordersValidation because it is enabled by default. And for testing it is a good way to return a String from the anonymous Cron function. But for production please return null if everything was okay or Cron will assume that there was an error while executing the job.

Okay, then it seems to be a problem with your Laravel timezone. Please check.

Whups, did you mean with Cron or Crontab and the expression * * * * *? If the Cron expression is 0 0 * * * and crontab runs every minute, there will be a problem with crontab. But if you run crontab only once a day (0 0 * * *) and the Cron job always (* * * * *) and this works now, you have to check the Laravel timezone.
