Scheduled jobs not running – manual execution works

[ITTV-tools]

Netbox (5.2.13)
I want to use Netbox-Ping (https://github.com/DenDanskeMine/netbox-ping)
The Plugin is installed, everyting is working. The Scheduled Jobs are not running.
Data Source Syncs from git are also not running if scheduled.

Is there something I have to enable? (using Netbox in docker)

Scheduled jobs and data source syncs depend on the NetBox background worker, not only the web container.

In the NetBox Docker compose file, the worker is a separate netbox-worker service running manage.py rqworker. If manual execution works but scheduled jobs do not, I would check the worker first:

docker compose ps netbox-worker
docker compose logs --tail=200 netbox-worker
docker compose ps redis redis-cache

Also make sure the worker is using the same NetBox image, plugin install, plugin config, and environment as the web container. Plugin jobs can appear fine when run manually in the web process but fail silently or never execute if the worker container does not have the same plugin/config or cannot connect to Redis.
