@princeparaste You need to restart your queue worker(s) if you change any application code.

On changing Listener code its not changing. Laravel always using cached code.
I am sending Mails in queues via events and listener. But whenever i change some code in my Listener file is not getting deducted by laravel. It is always using the old cached version of code i think.
Because when i change the filename, the new code works. But when i make change and dont rename the file. it didnt detect that my code is being changed.
I also tried using php artisan cache:clear but no luck

Thanx @martinbean. restarting the worker but. do you know how can i auto restart it everytime i make a file change ?
I am using pm2 process to keep track of queue jobs.
https://www.npmjs.com/package/pm2
It automatically starts when i php artisan serve
But it didnt restart it when i make a file change.
This is my YML file for pm2 :
apps:
- name: laravel-queue-worker
script: artisan
exec_mode: fork
interpreter: php
instances: 1
args:
- queue:work
- --tries=5
- --sleep=1

@princeparaste I have no idea what that package is. I’ve never used it.
You need to restart the worker each time you make a code change because the queue worker process loads the application into memory. So changing code does not change what’s in memory for the running process.
It automatically starts when i
php artisan serve
Please tell me you’re not using php artisan serve to serve your application in a production environment…?

@martinbean No i am not, 😂 I am just using that cmd in my Local. This queue worker method is effective to send mail in queue.
But i don't know what will happen if some other developer will code on my project. He might not know pm2 process needs to be restart everytime the file change.

see https://divinglaravel.com/avoiding-memory-leaks-when-running-laravel-queue-workers
you could restart the worker every two minutes so that you don't have to do anything, or you can type php artisan queue:restart
This restart option might be run from npm if you have it watch for code changes.

@Snapey Not sure about two minutes. sometime i change code too frequent to debug issues. but will try

you may try php artisan queue:listen
https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/queues#the-queue-work-command
Alternatively, you may run the queue:listen command. When using the queue:listen command, you don't have to manually restart the worker when you want to reload your updated code or reset the application state; however, this command is significantly less efficient than the queue:work command:
