Description

Description of the Issue

When a Bus::chain contains a job with a readonly promoted non-scalar property, only the first job or batch in the chain is executed. The subsequent jobs or batches appear to be discarded. Additionally, even if the chain is dispatched on a non-default queue, the jobs still run on the default queue.

No exceptions were found in the logs.

Environment

Laravel versions: 10.x and 11.x
PHP versions: 8.1, 8.2, and 8.3

Failing test PR : #51878

Here is a screenshot illustrating the issue:

Steps To Reproduce

1. Create a Bus::chain with at least one job having a readonly promoted non-scalar property.
2. Dispatch the chain.
3. Observe that only the first job or batch is executed, and subsequent jobs/batches are not processed.
4. Note that jobs run on the default queue, regardless of the specified queue.

Thanks @shaffe-fr. It's not by consequence that this is related to the enum usages in your PR?

[shaffe-fr]

Hi @driesvints, indeed, I had the same issue with classes.
I added another failing test case with a simple class in the PR #51878.

Thank you for reporting this issue!

As Laravel is an open source project, we rely on the community to help us diagnose and fix issues as it is not possible to research and fix every issue reported to us via GitHub.

If possible, please make a pull request fixing the issue you have described, along with corresponding tests. All pull requests are promptly reviewed by the Laravel team.

Thank you!

I believe this issue is due to the package(laravel/serializable-closure) not supporting the readonly property.

The issue I have with chained batches is that they stop executing whenever I have a job that uses a class type for its properties.
As soon as the next job in a chained batch has a class property, the chain is removed from the queue and marked as completed.

I've tried many combinations of visibility, readonly, promoted properties, non-promoted properties, serialising and unserialising the classes myself
Nothing seems to work, other than removing the properties.

All the jobs/batches in the chain are correctly displayed in the payload in both the Redis and database drivers.

@juse-less Could you provide some example codes? I can't reproduce it.

[juse-less]

@rust17 Hmm.
I might have a different issue entirely, but the behaviour sounds like the same as this issue.

I'll try your fix today, just to be sure I'm not missing something.
I'll then create a minimal reproducer.

[shaffe-fr]

I tried your fix with the code in the PR #51878 but it does not seems to work.

[rust17]

@shaffe-fr Hmm. This looks strange. I tried it and it works for me. You can see the results here. Could you consider accepting this PR? Try to trigger the GitHub Action and check if there are the same errors.

[shaffe-fr]

I tried a quick and dirty test: I added the if statement in the Native.php file modification in the vendor.

I'll try it directly in my project using your version of laravel/serializable-closure.

[shaffe-fr]

I confirm that I don't have the problem in my project with this fix!

[juse-less]

Same here. Seems like it actually fixes the problem.

I tested on the state I left things in a couple weeks ago, but definitely works now.
I first tested without installing @rust17 branch, and it still failed.
After installing the branch, it now goes through a chain of 10 batches, most of which use class properties- and arguments.

I'm gonna reset all my changes I did while debugging, but I'm confident this does solve it altogether.

Hey @driesvints, looks like we have a winner here :)
I'll close the issue when the PR laravel/serializable-closure#87 will be merged.
