Cron for two times a day - spring

I would like to schedule a cron job at 5am and 1830
I tried
0,30 5,18 * * *
but this actually run four times a day at
0500
0530
1800
1830
Can I set up cron to do this? I am using spring to run this cron job so if I cant do it using standard cron can I do it another way?
Thanks

You need to schedule it with two lines:
0 5 * * *
30 18 * * *
There is no way to specify some minutes/hours combination: if you define two couples of them, all combinations will be performed.

Cron expression for a job that runs every 30 minutes in a specific time window

I have a job running in spring boot and I want to run it every 30 minutes between 12 AM and 8 AM starting at 12 AM. I am struggling to figure out the cron-expression that can be used to achieve this.
This is the cron you described: * 0/30 0-8 ? * *

My #Scheduled task on Spring application is not executed on Heroku

In my Spring boot app, I have a task that runs every 5 minutes like this:
#Scheduled(cron="* 5 * * * *", zone="Europe/Paris")
public void sendPlanningDeadlineEmail() {
// Some code
}
It's working fine in my local environment. But when it's deployed in Heroku server, the task is not executed.
Some ideas ?
I think you cron expression is off. Your cron expression means: every minute 5 (so 01:05, 02:05, 03:05 etc.).
Try
0 */5 * * * *
See official docs.
The cron expression you are using is incorrect because if you are using a fixed value at minute place, it should be with fixed value of hour like 0 30 1 ? * * * to run at 1.30 am everyday.
If you want to schedule the task to run every 5 mintute use the below expression
0 */5 * ? * *
this means run At second :00, every 5 minutes starting at minute :00, of every hour.

Run schedule every five minutes (like 00:05, 00:10...) in laravel

I want to run the schedule every five minutes.
like 12:00, 12:05, 12:10...n
I'm using the Schedule Frequency Options :
->everyFiveMinutes();
But sometime it will start 12:02, 12:07, 12:12...n It's wrong for me.
So how can I run schedule every five mins special mins like +5?
try this
$schedule->command('your:job')->cron('5 0 * * *');
The command in this like will be executed at the five minutes of every day (0h05 or 12h05am) and so on.
You have to express this in cron notation:
$schedule->command('my:command')->cron('0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * *');

Spring Cron expression to exclude running job on one day for set times

I have a job that gets submitted every hour at 15 minutes past each hour via a Spring cron expression. A requirement has come up where this job is to not run at 12:15 am and 1:15 am on a Sunday morning.
My question is ... does cron support this kind of scenario where a job is to run every hour at 15 minutes past the hour except for 12:15 am and 1:15 am on a Sunday? Below is the expression that prevents it from running at 12:15 am and 1:15 am every day and it needs to be adjusted to only not run on Sunday at those times.
#Scheduled(cron = "0 15 2-23 * * ?")
Hopefully the above is clear. If not, please let me know and I will provide additional information.
Thank you in advance.
If it is wanted to run the job two specific days, it is possible to write the days together with comma.
Example: #Scheduled(cron = "0 15 2-23 * * SUN,MON)
Additionally, if you want to include all weekdays MON-FRI can be used:
Example: #Scheduled(cron = "0 15 2-23 * * MON-FRI)
Try
#Scheduled(cron = "0 15 2-23 * * SUN")

Java - spring - quatrz cron expression

Java - spring - quatz shedular.
I am trying to write following 2 cron expressions
1- cron expression to execute every day once in early morning by 3AM.
2 -cron expression to execute every after 3 hours
help appriciated
following are expressions i assume will work but have to wait to see.
1- "0 0 0/1 * * ?"
2- "0 3 * * * ?"
1) does not make any sense to me.
2) run in the 3th minute of every hour
Your expressions are wrong. The first one runs every hour while the second runs on every 3rd minute of every hour.
To run every day at 3 AM:
0 0 3 * * ?
I don't understand your second requirement.
