similar to: 1) Error 2) sending request to a specific worker

Hi all, I''ve got the error below in my backgroundrb_debug.log. I''ve tried to reproduce the error in the development environment, but the only way I can get the same thing is by calling ask_work with a bogus worker name. Calling it with the production code causes no error. Here''s an example of what the code calls: MiddleMan.ask_work(:worker => :agronomy_worker,

Hi, Is it possible to start a worker with job_key and then ask_status of that specific worker with the job_key? MiddleMan.ask_work(:worker => :auth_worker, :job_key=>''1'', :worker_method => :auth) and then MiddleMan.ask_status(:worker => :auth_worker, :job_key=>''1'') >From my testing of the new backgroundrb, asking status using job key

I tried to upgrade my existing application to RC2 last night. Like many, I use this mostly for running scheduled tasks. For the moment, I''ve abandoned the effort, but am looking forward to being able to use this. Feedback below: First, the reason I was looking forward to this upgrade was to use the threaded scheduler. I have an application with long-running tasks. I found that

I get this error periodically in backgroundrb.log, but only on my production box (the one running ruby 1.8.5) - my dev box doesn''t get this error. As far as I can tell, everything is working ok, despite the error (I don''t really know how to determine if the jobs are getting threaded successfully, but they are running, that I am sure of). Here''s the dump: no

Hey all, Been reading through all the old posts (and the docs) to familiarize myself but I still feel a bit lost. I''m on trunk and am having a bit of a hard time knowing where to start with the particular I''m trying to solve. So far, I''ve downloaded backgroundrb, done the basic rails setup, created my worker and started it using `script/backgroundrb start`.

Hi, What would be the best way to rename a controller and associated models/views ? Do we have to do it by hand ? Is there a tool that could help us renaming pluralized words too ? Mickael.

I''ve been using backgroundrb for... about an hour now. I must say, I''m impressed. But I''m a bit stumped on where to find the "official" documentation. There''s an API online at backgroundrb.rubyforge.org, but I don''t see the methods available for MiddleMan, etc. Right now, I''m trying to figure out how to get a list of all

Hi, I''m a long time backgroundrb user, still stuck using the very ancient original version from Ezra (not even Ezra''s 2.0 version, I''m using the one that didn''t really have a version number). The 2.0 version did very little but crash for me. Anyway I finally got some time set aside to try out this new version you all have been developing.

Hi, I am using Matt McCray''s theme generator. http://rubyforge.org/projects/theme-generator/ Everything works fine, but rendering an action in a controller using the AppMailer raises this: undefined method `current_theme'' for #<AppMailer:0x39df950> Is there someone who could help me ? Thanks ! Mickael. Traces:

I''m using a plugin which adds a method to ActiveRecord::Base http://similetimelinerailshelper.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/simile_timeline/ This adds an "acts_as" type declaration to the Models, via the file in vendor/plugins/simile_timeline/lib/simile_timeline.rb Rails is working with these declarations, and they are being used successfully in ''regular

Hello, I am unable to get the backgroundrb server to run. Initially I got: /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.0.1/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:263:in `load_missing_constant'': uninitialized constant BackgrounDRb::MasterProxy (NameError) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.0.1/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:453:in

Sorry if this comes through twice. I already sent this once, before joining the mailing list. I''m attempting to use Backgroundrb to handle asynchronous pdf creation, but in doing so, I''ve run into a very strange problem. Below is a method that''s called from the controller which creates a new worker, then grabs the worker and calls the ''build_pdf''

What might be causing this error? I see it once in 2-3 days and it goes away when I restart backgroundrb. Quoted below is my backgroundrb_server_11007.log file. Can I do anything to avoid this?

Hi, I''m brand new to BackgrounDRb and trying to figure out the setup. I cloned the git repository today as listed on the BackgrounDRb website. Starting out with a very basic worker, but BackgroundDRb is crashing on a NameError. Any help to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!!

Hi, we are trying to use BDRB for background processing of long-running reports, and have two issues - one is that worker does not see our Report class from Rails, throws a: /var/apps/ror_trunk/vendor/plugins/backgroundrb/server/master_worker.rb:22:in `load'': undefined class/module Report (ArgumentError) from

I lost my "connection lost" error.. but now I''ve got a "Mysql::Error: MySQL server has gone away" error.. It comes from: /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.15.6/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract_adapter.rb:128:in ''log''. I''m not sure if Rails / BackgroundRb uses it .. but i''ve got the mysql (2.7) gem

I use BDRb to process RSS feeds for users on my site (http://feedflix.com). I have a batch job that queries the DB for records that haven''t been updated in the last so many hours and kicks off a background job for each of them. If N records are returned by the DB, N background jobs gets queued and get done serially. As long as N is 255 or under, everything works like a charm.

Hello, I''ve been using backgroundrb successfully for months now, but suddenly I''m getting the error below when trying to start it up. I did some searching and I see that someone posted about it last month: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/backgroundrb-devel/2008-April/001685.html Anyone have any idea what could have happened? I made no changes to the code or configs, but I did

Hello all, I get this intermittent error saying OpenURI::HTTPError. At the bottom of the email is what is reported in my backgroundrb_server_<port>.log file. The process_netflix_reviews method is parsing (in the background) Netflix''s RSS feeds. This error also pretty much brings down the BDRb process and to recover, I am forced to do a ./script/backgroundrb stop

Hi, I want to make an open source rails project as easy as possible to install. Can I use Instant Rails for this? I treid to look at the FAQ but could not see this was possible. Ideally I would like to have Instant Rails install Ruby, Rails, MySql, etc and then have it add my application and add the mysql user (could be just root also) and then the sql for creating the tables. Sound like fun
