Using Spring Boot 1.5.4. #Scheduled(cron = "0 * * * * ?") should run task every minute. In one of my system it run every minute perfectly, but in another system(CentOS 6.3) it is not run every hour, i.e., it run at 14:58, run at 14:59, not run at 15:00, and then run at 15:01. What will cause this problem? how can I debug and find out the reason that it is not running at I expect?
It's just a hypothesis, but assuming that the Cron expression is correct (otherwise just check it again) and behaves differently on different machines the following can be a possible reason:
#Scheduled by default works in a way that it opens java.util.Timer which is single-threaded.
So if the code of the method that gets executed runs more than one minute, the subsequent invocation will be delayed (won't happen), only because the thread is already "occupied".
So to check yourself, try to do the following:
Define #Scheduled method so that it will run every minute but will just print some message to log (so that it will for sure take less than one minute).
If you see that it now behaves correctly, then it was indeed a problem, if not - it should be elsewhere.

I'm building an integration using Apache Camel. I have two routes that are triggered by the following cron expressions:
quartz2:delayone?cron=0 */15 23,0 * * ?
quartz2:delaytwo?cron=0 */15 3,4 * * ?
I expect the first to be triggered each day at 11pm every 15 minutes until 12.45 am, which it does!
I expect the second one to be triggered each day at 3am every 15 minutes until 3.45am, which ... it doesn't, it only fires twice once at 3am and then again at 3.15am!
Can you spot anything I am doing wrong?
I recommend you to use an online cron expression generator, like this one.
Please note also that the 0 is the first hour, not the last one.
So in "23,0", 0 is not the hour following 11pm, it's 0 am - see screenshot
I have this quartz cron expression: exp = "0 * * ? * *" that runs every minute.
I use this expression as a trigger to call a HTTP POST method every minute.
The problem is that it calls the post method multiple times.
I need an expression that will execute one time in a minute.
Any suggestion how to do that?
This works with Quartz.
Every 1 minute, exactly at the start of a minute - 0 0/1 * * * ?
How about a simple schedule trigger instead?
trigger = newTrigger()
.withIdentity("trigger7", "group1")
.withSchedule(simpleSchedule()
.withIntervalInMinutes(1) )
.build();

It may happen because request lasts longer than 1 min. You can simply annotate class implemented with Jobs with #DisallowConcurrentExecution, which disallow your job execute multiple times in exact time.
You can check example .
use this expression :
"* * * * *"
i.e 5 asteriks
try using that.

I am trying to build a cron expression using quartz in java. I get two parameters as hour and minute with which I have to schedule a job every hour and minute.
Till now I have tried this :
Example 1:-
Schedule job to run every 1 hour 10 minutes.
- I used cron expression for this example as "0 */10 */1 * * ?".
- But this job runs every 10th minute and not as 1 hour and 10 minutes.
Can anyone help me understand why this expression is not working ?
Thanks in advance.
Your cron expression will run every 10 minutes because that's what the first */10 means. The second */1 is redundant because it'll run anyway due to the first */10.
It's not clear to me what you're trying to do - recurring schedules can be tricky to express clearly, so I tend to write down a few examples and work from there.
Are you trying to get a pattern like:
01:10
02:10
03:10
If so, I think 0 10 * * * ? should do the job. The documentation I used to understand the expression is at http://www.quartz-scheduler.org/documentation/quartz-2.x/tutorials/tutorial-lesson-06.html and I also found http://www.cronmaker.com/ to be really helpful for sanity checking the expression - it'll work out the next few trigger times for you.
To achieve firing at a fixed rate every 1:10, i.e.
1:10
2:20
3:30
try the SimpleTrigger with a 1:10 interval.

. I want to run Quarta schduler at 1.00pm, 2.10pm, 5.15pm. That means Hour+minute. Any one help me with Cron expression for this plz ?
I'm afraid you can't do as exactly as you specified. As you mentioned in the question, here are some resources, which help you overcome this (Not as exactly as your requirement). But if you can change your minute time to a same number you can achieve this easily. If the minute number is so important you have to run 3 triggers. That seems to be the easiest way. It has mentioned in quartz.
Note that some scheduling requirements are too complicated to express with a single trigger - such as "every 5 minutes between 9:00 am and 10:00 am, and every 20 minutes between 1:00 pm and 10:00 pm". The solution in this scenario is to simply create two triggers, and register both of them to run the same job.
Use three lines like this:
0 13 * * * /bin/Quarta
10 14 * * * /bin/Quarta
15 17 * * * /bin/Quarta
Or whatever command you need to get it running. Might be worth making the command a shell script so you only have to modify the parameters in one place.
hello there is something i've realized with quartz when working.Say a cron is set to wake up every 2min with the expression 0 0/2 * * * ? .
When you run the project at say 13:10:30, the first action happens at 13:12:00 and the second 13:14:00 and every 2min 0 second for the rest. Obviously between the startup of the project and the first occurence of the action there have been 1mn:30s only.
Is there a way to for the first occurrence to respect the 2min no matter which at seconds the project starts?
Cron jobs are configured in Quartz using the CronTrigger class. The alternative is to use SimpleTrigger, which you can construct using fixed delay intervals. SimpleTrigger has various constructors, allowing you to specify the start time, end time, number of repeats, repeat interval, and so on.
Having said that, I'd recommend against using Quartz for this kind of scheduling, and use java.util.concurrent.Executors.newScheduledThreadPool(). It's much easier than Quartz when it comes to simple repeating tasks.
Quartz may use cron for the scheduling, which is based on date and time, not duration. This means that the cron expression you define is directly related to the current time on the machine, not on when the application started.
I am not aware of a Quartz configuration that will help you to solve your problem. However, a solution is to create your own Thread, which started during the launch of your application and that basically waits 2 minutes before calling a method:
while (running) {
Thread.sleep(1000 * 120);
doStuff();
}
