similar to: Any working rails example for backgroundrb?

I have backgroundrb working locally and everything''s fine. However, i can''t get it running on our server. I read a blog post by David Burger about backgroundrb (http://david-burger.blogspot.com/2008/04/backgroundrb-rails-notes.html#comment-form) and it says that you set up your backgroundrb.yml file with a different section for each environment you want to use. Mine looks like

Hi, If I start backgroundrb with rails_env = production, and then run my test suite, is it true that my background tasks will run against the production database? Can I prevent this from happening when I mistakenly end up with a combination like this?

I searched online but couldn''t find it. Even BackgrounDRb does not specify platform compatibility. Earlier version of BackgrounDRb ( < 0.2 ) were incompatible with windows. The current version of BackgrounDRb is 1.3.

Hello all. I am using BackgrounDRB with "great happiness and joy", however, I am running into one problem in that when I am running my tests with autotest using Sqlite3 3.3.17 I am getting "ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid" exception inside of the sqlite_adapter.rb:360 which is checking for an empty structure. I thought it might be the version of Sqlite, so I upgraded to 3.3.17

Trying to use backgroundrb to process and insert a large list of bulk records, but when I try to use it with the batched_sql_fu plugin installed in vendor/plugins, I get the following error: ---SNIP--- /Users/jdonalds/Sites/3dial_ads/config/../vendor/plugins/ batched_sql_fu/lib/batched_sql_fu/active_record.rb:22:in `alias_insert_sql_to_batched_version!'': undefined method

Hi, I have my rails sites tricked out with capistrano, and backgroundrb, so I can easily use the ant tasks, but I would like to be able to start and stop backgroundrb from within rails. I have a few reasons for this: 1. Using fastcgi, backgroundrb would start under the apache user and the same mod_security context as apache, instead of my developer account which has many more privileges. 2.

Hi I just tried to move my project to rails 1.2.1 on my locomotive development setup. It seems that backgroundrb is not willing to start up anymore. If I switch locomotive back to 1.1.6, everthing is fine. This is the error I get while attempting to start backgroundrb: /Applications/Locomotive2/Bundles/standardRailsJan2007.locobundle/

Hi, I have a long running task which generates JavaScript to files and I am hoping to move this to a backgroundrb worker. The javascript is currently generated with call to render_to_string: File.open(File.join(target_folder, ''all.js''), "w") do |file| file.puts(render_to_string :partial => ''partials/shared/javascript/tags'', :locals => {

Hi, I have a backgroundrb task initiated through the front-end. I also have an action in my controller I poll every second or so to see whether the task has completed, so that I can redirect to a confirm page on completion.

Hello all, I''m using BackgroundRb 0.2.0 (standalone) and in the do_work method of my worker, I''m working with objects from my Rails application. So in my config/backgroundrb.yml file, I added this line: :load_rails: true I think my worker isn''t doing what I want him to do. So I opened the console and read these error lines: # ruby script/backgroundrb console

I''m just getting started with BackgroundRB, but I''m not sure how to do what I need to do. I have many chat rooms (Jabber) which are controlled or mediated by a Rails app. There are periodic elections carried out in these rooms. Just this would be easy. I could set up a chron job in the configuration which gets all the chat rooms from Rails and calls chat.do_election on each

BackgrounDRbers: We pass a data batch to a background task for processing. When it finishes, our GUI updates correctly (using the results hash). But the data records don''t appear in the Rails connection to the database. Our stack is the HEAD BackgrounDRb, Rails 1.1.6, MySQL, and Apache/mongrel.

Hi everyone, I noticed that script/backgroudrb requires config/environment which causes the backgroundrb server as well as the log worker to ''bloat'' to 35MB each. I am kind of sensitive to memory issues, so I patched the code and essentially moved the require of environment from script/backgroundrb to the meta_worker. Everything seems good and now both backgroundrb server and

If I have a worker and everything set up and I call: MiddleMan.ask_status(:worker => :foo_worker) MiddleMan.ask_status(:worker => :foo_worker) MiddleMan.ask_status(:worker => :foo_worker) three times in quick succession. Will the tasks be queued up and executed as the previous one finishes? Or is this going to ignore the 2 bottom requests? How does this work? Do I absolutely need to
