This has both queue worker and nohup to start the queue but do you need both?

This has both queue worker and nohup to start the queue but do you need both?

With Azure WebApps, files stored outside the /home directory don't persist, so I don't believe the supervisor driven queue would work.

Thank you for providing these configuration.
I am using Azure Web app and I had to change couple lines in order for my app to work.

I commented the artisan queue line because Supervisor already takes care of it so we don't need it

laravel-on-azure-web-app-startup-command.sh

# run worker
# nohup php /home/site/wwwroot/artisan queue:work &

Also on Laravel worker config file, I added the first line because it was giving me the program_name error and also I commented the user because it couldn't find the user

laravel-worker.conf

[program:laravel-worker]
process_name=%(program_name)s_%(process_num)02d
command=php /home/site/wwwroot/artisan queue:work --sleep=3 --tries=3 --max-time=3600
autostart=true
autorestart=true
stopasgroup=true
killasgroup=true
;user=forge
numprocs=8
redirect_stderr=true
stdout_logfile=/home/site/wwwroot/storage/logs/worker.log
stopwaitsecs=3600

After these changes, it is working as expected with 8 workers

how increse size of files ? 413 Request Entity Too Large
