similar to: BackgrounDRb start error

Hi, I have successfully crossed all the hurdles to install Ruby on rails on a redhat 5 Linux based system. But the last and the biggest hurdle i am facing at this moment is installing backgrounrb :( I followed all the steps from the http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org/ 1. sudo gem install chronic packet 2. script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/backgroundrb [IMP:::: I had to drop

Everything works fine on my development box (Ubuntu 7.10, Ruby 1.8.6) but on my server (Fedora Core 6, Ruby 1.8.5) when I run script/backgroundrb start, the process fails to start. This is with Rails 2.0.2 frozen in the app, and I have the most recent version of the plugin (r297). Is Ruby 1.8.6 a requirement for backgroundrb now? I can''t figure any other reason it would fail...

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 All, I''ve been developing a rails app using the Bitnami RailsStack ( http://bitnami.org/stack/rubystack) and it has always worked as advertised. That is until I have tried to get BackgrounDRB up and running. I have followed the steps given on the plugin''s project page, each seems to work. I the plugin install works, I can generate workers etc, but when I start the backgrounDRB

I''m digging into BackgrounDRb and having some problems testing a worker class. The following line in my test (created from script/generate worker Test) throws an error: worker = TestWorker.new(:test_string => "testing...")

Hey Guys, In the readme for Backgroundrb it says that windows support has been depcreated for this version, but then it goes on to mention how to use it in Windows. So I''m not sure if it should be running on windows or not, so I''ll ask anyway. Also, I''m new to ruby and I''m also new to server administration, so I apologize if my questions are pretty

I just had an interesting issue on a production system that has been running nicely for about a year. There were approximately 10,000 backgroundrb temp files in the /tmp directory. It looks like backgroundrb wasn''t cleaning them up. I noticed it with the following error: DRb::DRbConnError: drbunix:///tmp/backgroundrb.20015/ backgroundrb_logger_0_0.101544829808665 -

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.

I have the next including files structure : - controller fileaA.rb including line (#8): require "fileB"... - /lib/fileB.rb with main header: load ''backgroundrb/worker.rb'' load ''backgroundrb/ worker_rails.rb'' class FileB <

I''ve been having a terrible time with the backgroundrb scheduler. The issues I''m having is that the scheduled actions aren''t ran at all and if they do, the process stays around forever. I''m using the backgroundrb as a nightly cron to run some accounting operations. questions: 1. How can I have the process destroyed after the worker completes? 2. Any idea on

I''m trying to do the tutorial at http://www.infoq.com/articles/BackgrounDRb. A little more than half-way through it says "Upon instalation, the plugin writes a config file into RAILS_ROOT/config/backgroundrb.yml." It didn''t happen for me. I installed the plugin with: ruby script\plugin install svn:\\rubyforge.org//var/svn/backgroundrb It added a bunch of files,

I just installed backgroundrb on our server. When tryin to start via script/backgroundrb i get a no method error. ./script/backgroundrb start /home/tom/ralf_dev/vendor/plugins/backgroundrb/server/lib/backgroundrb_server.rb:34:in `format_message'': undefined method `strftime'' for "2006-12-04T15:53: 23.419225 ":String (NoMethodError) from

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:

What are people are doing when they need to deploy a new code base? You can''t just restart backgroundrb, because then you lose any long-running backgroundrb processes. But then you''d conceivably have to wait several hours for all your procs to complete before pushing out the new code base. I was originally thinking that during code deploys, we''d start up a second

I installed BackgrounDRB as instructed: script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org//var/svn/backgroundrb rake backgroundrb:setup I started it with: rake backgroundrb:start In a model I make the call: MiddleMan.new_worker :class => :rss_worker In /lib/workers I have file rss_worker.rb, which contains the class: Class RssWorker < BackgrounDRb::Rails def do_work(args) ... end end

I started emailing monit mailing list because I started getting this problem where I couldn''t start backgroundrb with monit anymore, thinking it was a monit problem. However, I back tracked a bit since I had added code to my project, and monit was able to start backgroundrb again. I seem to have zeroed in on the problem. I''m not sure where the problem lies - maybe monit or

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
