[16.0] Job queues not running, stuck on pending

[tusharkimbal]

Module

queue_job

Bug

I am using Odoo 16 Enterprise and have started utilizing the queue_job module for some processes. My Odoo instance is running on AWS ECS, and I am using a Queue Job Runner on EC2. Initially, everything was functioning well, but now the jobs are stuck in the ‘started’ state.

My odoo.conf for jobrunner

Affected versions:
odoo 16+e

This below config I am using on EC2 specifically for queue_job runner
server_wide_modules = web,queue_job

[queue_job]
channels = root:4
host = <my_host>
port = 443
scheme = https
jobrunner_db_user = odoo
jobrunner_db_host = 10.10.1.192
jobrunner_db_password = odoo
jobrunner_db_port = 5432

Are you seeing any timeouts in the logs? I intermittently suffer from queue job workers timing out and not recovering. I usually end up slicing my jobs into smaller batches so that they finish with plenty of time to spare.
