Description
Hi,
I'm trying to schedule a job as follows: termux-job-scheduler --period-ms 86400000 --script /storage/emulated/0/Backup/rsync.sh --network any
The script is simply a small rsync job to sync some photos.
When I issue the command, nothing happens.
I thought it might be related to https://github.com/termux/termux-api-package/issues/78 or https://github.com/termux/termux-api/issues/276 but it doesn't seem so.
Thanks

Research direction
Start by reproducing the termux-job-scheduler command with the supplied script, period, and network arguments, then compare the behavior with the related issues 78 and 276. Trace where the command should report status or schedule the rsync job; done means the command no longer hangs silently and the scheduled job has a visible result.
