 * I have the scheduled event failed error in site health. also the restapi and 
   loopback request.
 * I installed WP Crontrol so I hopefully could see how to fix the scheduled event
   failed error.
 * It gives:
    Unexpected HTTP response code: 404 This means the wp-cron.php file
   in the root of your website has been deleted. Try reinstalling WordPress from
   the Dashboard -> Updates screen.
 * I reinstalled WordPress, but problem still exists.
    Maybe it’s important to note
   that I moved from server. I don’t know if these problems were at the old server,
   but for sure they are on this server. cronjobs are enabled at the server, but
   looks like wordpress doesn’t use them(that looks like the problem to me).

 * Does the wp-cron.php file actually exist? Once you determine that, you can decide
   whether you need to contact your web host, check for any plugins doing something
   weird, etc.
