Laravel schedule not respecting time

Question

I am using Laravel 9 and I am trying to set several tasks in my schedule. One of them should be called every minutes the other every 5 minutes .

    protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
    {
       $schedule->call(/* send myself a mail */)->everyMinute();
       $schedule->call(/* send myself a mail */)->everyFiveMinutes();
    }

On my host I have a cron task called every minutes :

/opt/alt/php81/usr/bin/php ~/my-path/artisan schedule:run

However every minutes I receive the mail from my everyMinute() task, and the mail from my everyFiveMinutes() task.

I tried with job and command instead of call but it doesn't changes anything, same with ->cron('* * * * *') instead of ->everyMinute()

have you tried the command that laravel give? `* * * * * cd /path-to-your-project && php artisan schedule:run >> /dev/null 2>&1` — Martinez, May 11 '22 at 15:07
This is whats I was using before, but it wasn't working and never calls my schedule — pnonnen, May 11 '22 at 15:12
I am using ubuntu, and the cron task is set a the server host of my website which is o2switch — pnonnen, May 11 '22 at 15:19
I think the cron job is properly set as it correctly call my schedule every minutes. The problem is Laravel calling every scheduled call no matter the time I set. — pnonnen, May 11 '22 at 15:27
Why would the content of my function called affect if it is call or not ? — pnonnen, May 12 '22 at 07:50

I had the very same issue.

I discover that when I use the schedule like this:

$schedule->call( MyController::MyFunction() )->everyFiveMinutes();

It run every minute, not every 5 minute as it would suppose to run.

If I run like this, every works as expect:

$schedule->call(function () {MyController::MyFunction();})->everyFiveMinutes();
