PHP

Laravel queues without a resident worker

Shared plans do not keep php artisan queue:work running. A cron entry that stops when the queue is empty is the pattern that fits the limit.

2026-07-30 · PHP

Shared plans allow cron every minute and refuse a process that runs forever. The command that fits is php artisan queue:work --stop-when-empty. Jobs may wait up to a minute. That is the trade for a ₹49 or ₹249 plan.

SSH is only on Unlimited, so Basic and Professional run Artisan from cron or from your laptop. Upload the vendor directory if you cannot run Composer on the server. New accounts start on PHP 8.1. Switch to 8.3 or newer for a current Laravel release.

Redis is not available. Use the database driver. If a worker must stay resident, move that part of the app to a VPS and leave the public site on shared hosting if you want.
