I have had a scheduled UiPath job running each 2 minutes for the last few months without any issues. Today, the scheduler does not seem to work at all. I can’t seem to find a reason why.
I have tried all of the following:
Restarted the machine
Disabled/enabled the scheduled job
Checked all robot and machine settings in orchestrator
Check to see that the license status is still OK
Upgrade studio from 18.3.2 to 19.2.0
We are using the Community Edition Orchestrator and version 18.3.2 community studio. I upgraded to 19.2.0 studio as well, but that did not seem to help. Running the robot from the server manually works when starting a process from the taskbar robot window, but the orchestrator schedules do not seem to be working at all. Normally, jobs are created under the [Schedule name] but now the schedule does not create jobs and the only way I can start a job is by manually doing it from the taskbar. All of these jobs are viewable from the orchestrator. The last time a scheduled job worked was 21 hours ago. Nothing has changed in our server environment or logged in user. I do not see anything helpful in the logs because there does not seem to be any logs for these schedule jobs that do not run.
Everything seems to set up right considering nothing was changed since this has been running over the last month. It ran well yesterday but simply does not run at all starting this morning. Am I missing something here? Is there a maximum number of jobs that can be run with the community editions, or maybe issues with our trial license?
It is still down for me. Is this type of instability normal for UIPath? Is this a problem only for the “free-community” edition, or can we expect similar issues once signed up for a paid license?
I reported this issue and our team is working on a fix.
Also, platform.uipath.com is at its core an evaluation place where you can test your robots and as such covers many, many robots simultaneously. This is why it will sometimes need to be fine-tuned to handle the load.
In the Enterprise scenario things are completely stable due to reasonably fixed and planned load on your servers
Having this opportunity, I would also like to remind everyone the conditions of using Orchestrator under the Community Edition license:
Great, thanks for the update. We are working to get set up with a paid license but have been spending time trying to prepare for changes that will come with automation. In the meantime, using the Community edition for in-depth testing has been invaluable. Is there any estimation for when this issue could be resolved?
Hi there! Thanks for the update!
I have exactly the same scenario discribed by @mtu in my company , so we hope that you can resolve this issue asap. Any estimation?
Best regards
We ended up having to get set up with the Enterprise trial, then start the process for purchasing licensing. The Community Edition Orchestrator is not stable as they mention above.
