ESP Daily task with Deep sleep

Projects Programming
1

Hi there
i want to make a battery operated feeder

i am trying to use this library but it doesn't run at specific time and always miss the time

can someone please take a look and see what is messed up ?
i have tried to change lot in deep sleep time but still can't make it work (ESPDailyTaskNTP.cpp)

-replaced 1 by 1000/10000/1000000 in sleep
-changed NTP url / Time Zone
-various hour setting
-diff reset pin
-diff rtc flag
-diff sleep modes

if task time is less then 1 hour after fetching time from NTP (when counter hits 0 or via reset pin) it does the task go back to sleep mode but again after 24 hour their is no task and keep goes on

attaching serial monitor output

Post your code in code tags.

Is the uController a ESP32 or a ESP8266?

Put the images in img tags.

Post your code in code tags.

sorry forgot to mention its ESP8266 - Lolin D1 mini and NodemcuV3

using same example as in lib for testing purpose with minimal change

/*
