Airflow tasks not gettin running - airflow

Question

I am trying to run a simple BASHOperator task in Airflow. The DAG when trigerred manually lists the tasks in Tree and Graph view but the tasks are always in not started state.
I have restarted my Airflow scheduler. I am running Airflow on local host using a Kubectl image on Docker Compose.
from airflow import DAG
from airflow.operators.dummy_operator import DummyOperator
from airflow.operators.bash_operator import BashOperator
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
default_args = {
'owner': 'airflow',
'depends_on_past': False,
'email': ['vijayraghunath21#gmail.com'],
'email_on_success': True,
'email_on_failure': True,
'email_on_retry': False,
'retries': 1,
'retry_delay': timedelta(minutes=2),
}
with DAG(
dag_id='bash_demo',
default_args=default_args,
description='Bash Demo',
start_date=datetime(2021, 1, 1),
# schedule_interval='0 2 * * *',
schedule_interval=None,
max_active_runs=1,
catchup=False,
tags=['bash_demo'],
) as dag:
dag.doc_md = __doc__
# Task 1
dummy_task = DummyOperator(task_id='dummy_task')
# Task 2
bash_task = BashOperator(
task_id='bash_task', bash_command="echo 'command executed from BashOperator'")
dummy_task >> bash_task
DAG Image

Answer 1

As shown on the image you added the DAG is set to off thus it's not running. You should click on the toggle button to set it to on.
This issue can be avoided in two ways:
Global solution- if you wills set dags_are_paused_at_creation = False in airflow.cfg - This will effect all DAGs in the system.
Local solution - if you will use is_paused_upon_creation in the DAG contractor:
with DAG(
dag_id='bash_demo',
...
is_paused_upon_creation=False,
) as dag:
This parameter specifies if the dag is paused when created for the first time. If the dag exists already, the parameter is being ignored.
