Backgroundrb devel - Dec 2007 - A newbie question regarding BackgroundRb

Hi all,

I just read Ezra''s article on BackgroundRb and decided to use it one
of my projects. I installed the plugin into my rails project using
script/plugin and then ran rake backgroundrb:setup to copy the yml
scripts.

Now my backgroundrb.yml looks like
======---
port: "22222"
timer_sleep: 60
load_rails: true
environment: development
host: localhost
database_yml: config/database.yml
acl:
  deny: all
  allow: localhost 127.0.0.1
  order: deny,allow

scheduled_task:
  :class: :tx_reaper_worker
  :worker_method: :do_work
  :trigger_args:
    :start: <%= Time.now %>
    :repeat_interval: <%= 1.second %
======
TxReaperWorker is my class which I generated.

======class TxReaperWorker < BackgrounDRb::Rails
  def do_work(args)
    puts "Hello BackgroundRb"
  end
end
======
I started my rails app using
rake backgroundrb:start
script/server

However, I am unable to view the output of "puts" anywhere. I can
connect successfully to localhost:22222 but cannot see anything
happening. Neither anything shown up on the app''s output, nor on the
log/backgroundrb.log file.
However, the logfile does shows that "Log file created...".

Am I missing any step? Doing anything wrong?

Thanks in advance :)

Did you follow on from http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org/ or not?  
BackgrounDRb has been massively overhauled and improved by Hemant.  
Ezra''s article might be related to 0.20 instead of the 1.0 version we  
have now.

You are using VERY old version of plugin, can you please checkout
details regarding new version from:

http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org

Hi Hemat, Geoff,

Thanks for the tip - I''ll make sure that I am on the latest version :)
