Campaigns Not Sending, Stuck in Draft

[carallel]

We're new to sendportal and are trying to send our first test campaign. We followed the directions for installation and the cron job is running every minute and picking up queued campaigns. However when we attempt to send to a group of subscribers with a specific tag, the campaign shows zero messages sent, and the messages show up under the subscriber's details as "draft." The campaign does move out of the queue and we have it set to send immediately.

What did you choose for the Sending Behaviour?

Chiming in here as I am help @carallel with this setup.

We got the campaigns to send successfully when using the "sync" queue driver. We did have it set to use our PGSQL DB when the issue was occurring. It looks like the "jobs' table does have the jobs, but the "attempts" column shows 0 on all of them.

Have you followed the instructions under Message Sending & Queues in https://sendportal.io/docs/v2/getting-started/configuration-and-setup#additional-configuration

If you are not running the sync queue driver, then you must have queue workers running.
