php artisan horizon:forget

Hi

When using horizon:forget command like this

php artisan horizon:forget 25d8d9d1-56f4-4d75-a93e-dydgac0b45ae

I see the job is removed from Horizon Failed Jobs list

But, I get this error in Terminal

SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused (Connection: mysql, SQL: delete from `failed_jobs` where `uuid` = 25d8d9d1-56f4-4d75-a93e-dydgac0b45ae)

I got a similar message in my laravel.log when uploading images and using glide presets. I posted about that problem last week.

It's trying to connect to a database (because that's where failed jobs usually live) but as you probably don't have a database, it errors out.

This addon might be helpful for storing failed jobs if you're not using a database - I've never used it myself.

Ah. I see. Thanks. I don't normally worry about removing failed jobs, as the list clears itself.

I'll give that addon a go, once I've managed to figure out what's triggering the other problem. #8287
