**Your software**
My Mautic version is: 5.2.1
My PHP version is: PHP/8.1.31
My Database type and version is: mysql:9.1.0
**Your problem**
I am trying to send a segment email following the [Send Scheduled Broadcasts (Segment Emails) Cron Job](https://forum.mautic.org/t/sending-in-progress-does-not-actually-progress/15396) documentation, but I am unable to do so.
My Cron Job executes, but it throws a `Symfony\Component\Messenger\Exception\TransportException`
My mautic cron file:
SHELL=/bin/bash
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
BASH\_ENV=/tmp/cron.env

These errors are showing in the log:

If someone has the same issue, make sure to load the environment variables correctly inside the cron file (e.g., `/tmp/cron.env`) or directly in `/opt/mautic/cron/mautic`. In my case, the problem was caused by missing AMQP server environment properties.
