"Without no reason" sometimes cron doesn't start

See original GitHub issue

Hi,

i’v some unexplainded troubles, i’v multiple cron scheduled on my “app boostraper” :

        cron.schedule(
          '0 10 * * *',
          () => {
            try {
              console.log('*START Task*')
            } catch (e) {}
          },
          {
            scheduled: true,
            timezone: 'Europe/Paris',
          })

        cron.schedule(
          '0 11 * * *',
          () => {
            try {
              atask2()
            } catch (e) {}
          },
          {
            scheduled: true,
            timezone: 'Europe/Paris',
          })

      cron.schedule(
        '0 0 * * 1',
        () => {
          try {
            atask3()
          } catch (e) {}
        },
        {
          scheduled: true,
          timezone: 'Europe/Paris',
        })

Sometimes the 10 AM cron not starting, any reasons ? (it’s happend “randomly” once a week)

I met the same issue. I have a program that invokes a function once per hour by node-cron. The cron string is 30 0 * * * *.

I have run it for 6 days, but it did not work at 2021-11-22 21:00:30 KST. This is my log at that time:

...

I have noticed the same. Cron job scheduled every 5 minutes misses a start every day or every two days.
