Your syntax problem may lie within your "schedule" tag (mix of month and every, and unwanted final comma):
<schedule>1,15, of month every 2 hours</schedule> Your "description" tag and posting text do not match the every 2 hours in your "schedule" tag. Assuming that you want to run every 30 minutes... Option 1: try <schedule>1,15 of month 00:00</schedule> and at the end of your scheduled task enqueue a task to execute 30 minutes later, if this would be within the same day. Option 2: try <schedule>1,15 of month 00:00</schedule> <schedule>1,15 of month 00:30</schedule> <schedule>1,15 of month 01:00</schedule> <schedule>1,15 of month 01:30</schedule> ... <schedule>1,15 of month 23:30</schedule> This is more robust than chaining enqueued tasks kicked off by a scheduled task, but would be more cumbersome to code, since you will need a cron entry for each schedule. Is this any help?
