At the top of this post I mentioned the process is there just queue job doesn't get executed (which mens jobs are in the table) unless I manually type command "sudo php artisan queue:work" or "sudo systemctl start laravel_worker" My coworker said just put sudo systemctl start laravel_worker in postdeployment script. Then it seems to work. Is that how I supposed to do? Please advice.

If the process is there, but no actual job is being done, that looks like privileges issue. Make sure, the process is being run by the same user who is serving the application too. Also, I just noticed, running an artisan worker as root is very much not adviced.

the --daemon option is deprecated. programs under control of systemd should not daemonize anyway.

Having a bunch of issues with this ... freaking amazon removed supervisord from amazon linux 2023 and system d is the only way it seems but I'm not experience enough on how to use it. I just wish they would bring back supervisord
