I've gone through and created two new commands that I need ran on a daily and monthly basis. I then went into the app\console\kernel.php file and set them up in the schedule function. When I try to run php artisan schedule:run locally or by adding it to Forge's Schedule section, I get this error. What am I doing wrong?
No scheduled commands are ready to run.
That is information, not an error; if the tasks are not due to run at the whenever the schedule:run command is executed, then it will output that information.
Your CRON task will execute schedule:run every minute, so will pick up the command/job/Closure task(s) whenever they are due to run, e.g. daily tasks will execute every day at midnight, while monthly tasks will execute on the first day of every month.
You could use some of the built-in methods to tell you what is being run and when: https://laravel.com/docs/6.x/scheduling#task-output
I thought that if I ran the schedule:run it would trigger my tasks to run. I quickly figured out that was not the case. I was able to sort everything out. Thanks.
