Hi Team,

Due to security concerns, we stored the database credentials in the server environment variable instead of direct use in config.php. LMS is working fine, but all scheduled tasks are getting failed. Please help here to resolve the issue. Thank you!

Hi Shravan,

Whatever mechanism you are using to define those environment variables needs to be replicated in the environment/process that is executing cron
