# X_WORKER_QUEUE_UNKNOWN

## Means

WORKER_QUEUES names a queue no job and no jobs.queues entry declares

## Typical cause

a typo, or a pattern (banks-*) the app meant to expand before the worker read it — the worker would claim a queue nothing is ever enqueued on and leave the real ones waiting

## Fix

`x jobs list --json   # set WORKER_QUEUES to queues it lists, or add the queue to jobs.queues in app.config.ts`
