I am running a job scheduler in spring boot application.

To execute job every 5 min, I am using below cron expression

@Scheduled(cron = "0 0/5 * * * *", zone ="EST").

This is working fine But when I try to execute the same job at a specific time, for instance at 11:30 AM, I am using below cron expression

@Scheduled(cron = "0 30 11 * * *", zone ="EST")

This is not working I couldn't find any mistake w.r.t syntax. Please help if I am doing anything wrong

that expression looks good to me ? what do you mean not working ? – Ryuzaki L Mar 16 '21 at 19:26
remove zone ="EST" and try again – Panagiotis Bougioukos Mar 16 '21 at 19:27
Not working means - the scheduled method did not execute at the specified time. When I removed zone="EST", it did execute, but I need to specify the time zone as well. – user13944893 Mar 16 '21 at 20:24
Does this answer your question? [Provide time zone to Spring @Scheduled?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15930171/provide-time-zone-to-spring-scheduled) – Nowhere Man Mar 16 '21 at 22:41
