batch jobs stil pending even with all jobs executed

Hi !

I just started to use Horizon with batch jobs.

I have 15 batch jobs that have to be executed at night.

I tried and I have many batch jobs still pending (at 80% or 90% even 98%) but there is no any pending jobs or failed jobs.

What could be the problem ? Horizon config ? Redis config ?

Here is my horizon configuration:

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Str;

return [

    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Horizon Domain
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | This is the subdomain where Horizon will be accessible from. If this
    | setting is null, Horizon will reside under the same domain as the
    | application. Otherwise, this value will serve as the subdomain.
    |
    */

    'domain' => null,

    /*

    | This is the URI path where Horizon will be accessible from. Feel free

Did you ever get this fixed?

In my case the batches never completed and were never changed/removed, you need both the InteractsWithQueue and Batchable traits for that.

Crazy how this is not mentioned more prominently in the documentation.
