Daily automated report

Setting Default

HEALTH_CHECK_DAILY_REPORT_RECIPIENT esoysal@prosystech.nl

The scheduler runs inside the web app process. After each safe-mode run completes, an HTML summary is emailed via Azure Communication Services.

Manual run

  1. Open /admin/health-check
  2. Click Email report now (or Start Health Check for a custom selection)
  3. Track progress under Previous Runs

Runs triggered by the daily report show daily-health-report (email report).

Azure execution model

On Azure App Service, health probes run on a dedicated background thread with loopback HTTP (127.0.0.1:{PORT}). This avoids deadlocks where the app would otherwise call itself on the same async event loop.

Stale runs

Runs stuck in running for more than 45 minutes are auto-reconciled when history is loaded.

Required production settings

  • ADMIN_PASSWORD — required for unattended daily report authentication
  • ACS_EMAIL_ENABLED=true plus connection string and sender address
  • SESSION_SECRET_KEY — 32+ random characters

Troubleshooting
