Hello , sincei stated using queue mode i have some issues that i did not have before:

1. when sending request via webhook it does not start, it just stays in executing mode
2. sometimes when it waits, instead of wait for 2 minutes or 3 (the amount i say there) it can wait 4ever and just not continue the flow, what i am doing wrong?

I am usign this setup:  
[https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n/blob/master/docker/compose/withPostgresAndWorker/docker-compose.yml](https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n/blob/master/docker/compose/withPostgresAndWorker/docker-compose.yml)

and this is how is start the workers:

n8n:  
\<\<: \*shared  
ports:  
- 5678:5678

Before i tried with 3 workers now i reduced them to 1, and still haveing same issue, all this on just 1 machine

Hey @Victor_Sava,

That is the sort of thing you would see if the worker is not running correctly. Have you checked the logs to make sure everything is running correctly?
