I have been facing this damn ugly issue since quite sometime.
So this worker reads RSS feed from Yahoo news and stores it in a DB.
The worker is scheduled to run at every 40 minutes and my
background_schedules.yml looks like this:
feed_worker:
:class: :feed_worker
:job_key: :feed_worker_key
:worker_method: :do_work
:trigger_args:
:start: <%= Time.now + 5 %>
:repeat_interval: <%= 40*60 %>
So story is, worker stops working suddenly. no exception thrown either
in background.log or background_server.log.
To also, to make sure that backgroundrb threads doesn''t eat my
excpetion my code looks like this:
def do_work(args)
begin
logger.info "Starting the Yahoo feed worker on : #{Time.now}"
yahoo_url = "http://finance.yahoo.com/rss/headline?s="
symbol_list = NasdaqSymbols.find_all()
symbol_list.each do|sym|
temp_sym = sym.symbol.strip
temp_url = yahoo_url + temp_sym
get_feeds(temp_url,temp_sym) rescue next
end
rescue
logger.info $!
logger.info $!.backtrace
end
end
^^^ could be naive, but the point is, why worker stops suddenly
without any errors? Earlier I thought, may be logging has bug and
worker is still running. But a quick check from database says
otherwise.

Try running the backgroundrb server in the foreground, this may show some messages that are not making to the logs. Start it with: ./script/backgroundrb run instead of: ./script/backgroundrb start Mason On 4/18/07, Jodi Showers <jodi at nnovation.ca> wrote:> > > > On 18-Apr-07, at 11:01 AM, hemant wrote: > > > >> On 4/18/07, hemant <gethemant at gmail.com> wrote: > >>> I have been facing this damn ugly issue since quite sometime. > >>> > >>> So this worker reads RSS feed from Yahoo news and stores it in a DB. > >>> The worker is scheduled to run at every 40 minutes and my > >>> background_schedules.yml looks like this: > >>> > >>> feed_worker: > >>> :class: :feed_worker > >>> :job_key: :feed_worker_key > >>> :worker_method: :do_work > >>> :trigger_args: > >>> :start: <%= Time.now + 5 %> > >>> :repeat_interval: <%= 40*60 %> > >>> > >>> So story is, worker stops working suddenly. no exception thrown > >>> either > >>> in background.log or background_server.log. > >>> > >>> To also, to make sure that backgroundrb threads doesn''t eat my > >>> excpetion my code looks like this: > >>> > >>> def do_work(args) > >>> begin > >>> logger.info "Starting the Yahoo feed worker on : #{Time.now}" > >>> yahoo_url = "http://finance.yahoo.com/rss/headline?s=" > >>> symbol_list = NasdaqSymbols.find_all() > >>> > >>> symbol_list.each do|sym| > >>> temp_sym = sym.symbol.strip > >>> temp_url = yahoo_url + temp_sym > >>> get_feeds(temp_url,temp_sym) rescue next > >>> end > >>> rescue > >>> logger.info $! > >>> logger.info $!.backtrace > >>> end > >>> end > >>> > >>> ^^^ could be naive, but the point is, why worker stops suddenly > >>> without any errors?

But I would definitely, try to delete the worker after use. My initial doubts were with Mysql dropping connections and I am working on those lines, but if nothing comes out, then I think, I would have to switch from bdrb. :( Mason, how would that help? And as is turns out, I have remote access to the machine and bug appears only after running for a full day!! So, I can''t possibly run a SSH session for that much time. -- gnufied ----------- There was only one Road; that it was like a great river: its springs were at every doorstep, and every path was its tributary. http://people.inxsasia.com/hemant

I''m just making a suggestion that could help you see error messages that won''t make it the error logs. This is how I found a bus error when tracking down a previous issue I was encountering in backgroundrb: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/backgroundrb-devel/2006-December/000594.html What I saw was similar to what you are seeing (a script stopping mid-run with no logging and no exception thrown), but in my case it would happen immediately. (My issue by the way had to do with loading the postgres native driver on Mac OS X). You might be able to run backgroundrb in the ''foreground'' using nohup, and then save the std output to a file, ex: nohup ./script/backgroundrb run > testrun.log &2>1 The nohup command should prevent your command from terminating when you disconnect from the ssh terminal.
