Php cron job fails on Nextcloud 29.0.0 Beta

[noxxomix]

Since upgrading I now notice that the cron job fails with the following:
Error: Class "OC\BackgroundJob\TimedJob" not found in /var/www/nextcloud/apps/phonetrack/lib/Cron/AutoExport.php:15

Nextcloud support inform me that the music app should move from OC to OCP in order to prevent this failure under Nextcloud 29.0.0.

Same here. Not sure why the app is listed as compatible with version 29 in the app store
Also, the link to the proper github page is broken on the app store.

Same here, with NC 29 RC4

same issue here, Nextcloud Hub 8 (29.0.0 RC5):

Unfortunately also Webcron or Ajax cannot get activated so background jobs completely dead:

Same here for 29 stable version.

Others had similar problems, see for example:
nextcloud/richdocuments#3527

EDIT: Applying the same fix manually seems to work.
I will provide a Pull Request later today.

EDIT2: No PR necessary. master is already fixed in: fc1ed7f

Probably "only" a fresh release is necessary. 😉

@mr-wolf-gb Please note that there is indeed a problem with phonetrack but your logs correspond to a similar problem with the dropit application :-) have a nice day !
The cron problem is present in many applications.

Sorry I distinguished the problem and solved 😅

https://github.com/julien-nc/phonetrack/releases/tag/v0.8.1 is released and works for me.

Thanks, @julien-nc !
