Kue is not adding jobs to redis instance

Hello guys,

I've been struggling with an issue that I dont have any idea how to solve or why it happens.

When I use Kue with a local instance of redis, everything is just fine, and work as it should. The problem is when I moved everything to my staging environment, Kue went crazy. Sometimes jobs are not added to the queue, and sometimes they are added but they're not handled by workers (just get stuck in inactive state).

The first jobs (one or two) that I add to the queue are done, but after a few minutes they're not added anymore or are not handled.

Does anyone have any idea or have faced a similar problem? It's very strange that everything is working locally, but not with a remote instance of redis.

Thanks!

Start by reproducing the issue in the staging environment with its remote Redis instance, comparing it with the working local setup. Investigate why jobs stop being added or remain inactive instead of being handled by workers. Done means jobs are consistently enqueued and processed in staging.
