Backgroundrb devel - Jun 2007 - one more "uninitialized constant" problem

Hi everyone,
   
  I''m new to backgroundrb, and I''m trying to get started with
a simple example, yet with no success.
   
  This is the code that I have in RAILS_ROOT/lib/workers/testing_worker.rb
  class TestingWorker < BackgrounDRb::Worker::RailsBase
    def do_work(args)
    # This method is called in it''s own new thread when you
    # call new worker. args is set to :args
      logger.info(''TestingWorker do work'')
    results[:do_work_time] = Time.now_to_s
    results[:done_with_do_work] || = true
  end
  end
   
  And this is the code that I have in
RAILS_ROOT/app/controllers/mytest2_controller.rb
  class Mytest2Controller < ApplicationController
  def new
    key = MiddleMan.new_worker(:class => :testing_worker)
    worker = MiddleMan.worker(key)
    #worker.other_method
    #worker.delete
  end
end
   
  And this is what I get when I access: http://host:3000/mytest2/new
   NameError in Mytest2Controller#new
   uninitialized constant TestingWorker
 RAILS_ROOT: script/../config/..
 Application Trace | Framework Trace | Full Trace
   
  I don''t understand why I''m getting the "uninitialized
constant" error. I''ve read other postings with the same issue, and
I understand that you must restart the server after adding/making modifications
to your workers. The server is restarted with the following commands:
./script/backgroundrb stop and ./script/bacgroundrb start, right? (I
don''t even think this applies to me, since first I created all
necessary files for the example and then I started the server; I did restart the
server several times just to make sure this is not a problem)
  I also tried to use the console and I get a similar message.
  Btw, I have changed nothing in the default setup, except in
/server/lib/backgroundrb/console.rb, where I commented out the line
"require ''irb/completion''" due to a strange error
that I was getting.
   
  Thanks,
  Tiberiu
   
  PS. I want to make sure that the way I downloaded backgroundrb is not faulty.
Instead of getting it via subversion (trying to save time by not involving my
admin), I just downloaded file by file from
http://svn.devjavu.com/backgroundrb/tags/release-0.2.1.

Do you have

	TestingWorker.register

at the end of the testing_worker.rb file?

Hi Geoff,
   
  Yes, I do have it at the end of the script. I just forgot to copy it in the
message.

  Do you have
  

  TestingWorker.register

  

  at the end of the testing_worker.rb file?

RAILS_ROOT/app/controllers/mytest2_controller.rb

  def new
    key = MiddleMan.new_worker(:class => :testing_worker)

Ah, think I see it now.

Try changing your TestingWorker to use Time.now.to_s not  
Time.now_to_s. If you check the backgroundrb log files you will  
probably see a no method error somewhere.
