M2.4.6 - Bulk Update Attributes no longer working

[GTLTD]

After a server issue, I am unable to bulk update product attributes on our Magento 2.4.6 site. The job remains stuck with the message Task "Update attributes for 4 selected products": 1 item(s) have been scheduled for update.

This is the cron job running on our Cloudways server:

#~ MAGENTO START c40b63b3eadd5cd6913308a6125243dcbe93fc5e6975955d41861ec32a66eeee
*/5 * * * * /usr/bin/php8.1 /<MAGENTO_ROOT>/public_html/bin/magento cron:run 2>&1 | grep -v "Ran jobs by schedule" >> /<MAGENTO_ROOT>/public_html/var/log/magento.cron.log
#~ MAGENTO END c40b63b3eadd5cd6913308a6125243dcbe93fc5e6975955d41861ec32a66eeee

As bulk update is run by Magento consumers I have investigated this but got no-where. In app/etc/env.php I have the following:

'cron_consumers_runner' => [
'cron_run' => true,
'max_messages' => 10000,
'consumers' => [

]

and

'queue' => [
'consumers_wait_for_messages' => 0
]
];

Apparently 'consumers' can be left blank to run all consumers?

Running php bin/magento queue:consumers:start product_action_attribute.update does nothing, I get nothing pop up in the window. Cron must be working on the server as we are getting heartbeat messages via the Wyomind Cron add-on we have installed.

Can anyone advise how to get this working again please?

Hello @GTLTD 

In Magento 2, you can specify which consumers to run by providing a comma-separated list of consumer names when running the bin/magento queue:consumers:start command. 

If you leave the consumer names blank, all consumers will be started.

For example, if you want to start only the product_action_attribute.update and inventory.source.items.cleanup consumers, you can run the following command:

bin/magento queue:consumers:start product_action_attribute.update inventory.source.items.cleanup

If you want to start all consumers, you can simply leave the consumer names blank:

bin/magento queue:consumers:start

This will start all consumers defined in your Magento installation's queue_consumers.xml configuration file.
