Hi all-
Long time lurker, first time writer.
I have a rails app that takes a contact from an existing web app, (the 
user fills out a form), and then emails the contact to a reservationist 
for follow up. This is part of a step-wise replacement of the app. I run 
a cron every 10 minutes to take unprocessed records from the contact_log 
table, find the reservationist,  and send them an email.
[contact_log.rb]
def self.find_unprocessed
    return find_all("procesed = 0")
end
This will run once, and then i start getting funky results. From that 
run forward, active record will show no contacts in the db, so nothing 
gets mailed. If i go straight to the database and run "SELECT * FROM 
contact_log WHERE processed = 0", i get a number of results. If i go 
into the console and run ContactLog.find_all, nothing, but 
ContactLog.connection.select_all("SELECT * FROM contact_log WHERE 
processed = 0") returns the expected results.
Is something being cached? I can''t find any ruby processes running on 
the machine once the cron job is finished (actually, cron is a misnomer 
-- the machine is running win 2003).
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
lee
