Laravel artisan queue:work redirect stderr/stdout to file

Question

I'm trying to redirect the stdout and stderr of command php artisan queue:work while it's in background. To accomplish this, I've created this script :

## script name: queue_work.sh

    #!/bin/bash

    ## Redirect Files

    STDOUTFILE="${RootDir}/storage/logs/queue_output"
    STDERRFILE="${RootDir}/storage/logs/queue_error"

    ## Run php artisan

    php ${ARTISANCMD} queue:work --queue=high --sleep=3 --tries=3 1>"${STDOUTFILE}_high.log" 2>"${STDERRFILE}_high.log" &
    php ${ARTISANCMD} queue:work --queue=low  --sleep=3 --tries=3 1>"${STDOUTFILE}_low.log" 2>"${STDERRFILE}_low.log" &

When I run

./queue_work.sh

the four files are well created into storage/logs/ and when I process Queueable the queue works well (that is process the commands) all queue_output*.log and queue_error*.log files stay empty.

What doesn't work in my simple script?

Thanks

Try running

nohup php artisan queue:work

it will create nohup.out file where all the output and errors will be displayed like:
