Laravel 5.1 Task Scheduling on Windows

Question

I\'m trying to get Laravel 5.1 Task Scheduling working on IIS. When I run a batch file using Windows task manager it will run the task one time only. How can I get ->everyMinute

Answer 1

Windows does support Laravel Scheduler but, you've to run the command on your own for multiple times. Since we can't use Windows Task Scheduler to run for every 1 min as we can do with linux crontab. If you're using windows for development environment and want to test if command is working on not you can try this

If you run the

php artisan schedule:run

command for multiple times by giving a min gap for each trial it'll work.

If you want to run directly the command you can follow this.

"path\to\php.exe" "artisan" YourCommand > "NUL" 2>&1 &

You can find path of your php.exe using below step.

Run "where php.exe" in command prompt
