Description

After manual scanning photos an run cron.php photos appear on the map, but new added photos are still not on the map after several days. It seems that the os_jobs table doesn't contains any Map jobs.
How can I add the cron background job? Or is there an other problem?

Research direction

Start with cron.php and inspect how background jobs are registered and stored in the os_jobs table. Reproduce the difference between manual scanning and newly added photos, then verify whether Map jobs are created and processed. Done means new photos appear on the map without manual scanning and the relevant jobs run successfully.
