similar to: Schedule write errors?

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? Thanks, Raghu ================================================================================== /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/monitor.rb:224:in `mon_exit'': stack level too deep (SystemStackError) from

Hi, all. Just wondering if anyone has tried using the Paperclip file upload plugin with Backgroundrb. My current implementation uses attachment_fu - I save the file initially to the file system without generating thumbs, then a bdrb process picks up that file, generates thumbs, and saves to S3. This works fine and dandy, the only hitch is I want to save image metadata in the same table

Below is the content of my backgroundrb_server_11007.log This seems to happen in a non-repeatable way - so every 2 days or sometimes after 4-5 days, my b/g process dies with this error. Is this something anyone else has seen - any fixes?

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!! I am also attaching a text file with the output below since it might be

Hi, New BackgrounDrb user struggling for a couple of days to get things up an going. System: Ruby 1.8.6 Packet 0.1.5 chronic 0.2.3 BackgrounDrb 1.0.3 (downloaded 4/02/08 and 4/03/08) I installed the packet and chronic gems as per instructions. I used git to download BDrb as per instructions and ran the rake setup script. When I run script/backgroundrb from my rails app main directory, I get

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

I''m working on an application that does extensive database searching. These searches can take a long time, so we have been working on moving the searches to a backgroundrb worker task so we can provide a sexy AJAX progress bar, and populate the search results as they are available. All of this seems to work fine until the size of the search results gets sufficiently large, when we start

Hi all, I''m new to this list (and pretty new to backgroundrb). I''d like to jump in with a question, I hope you don''t mind. I''m trying to get my site working with backgroundrb to sent mail. It''s pretty basic stuff and I got it working pretty fast on my local machine (os x leopard). Unfortunately, when I try to deploy to my production machine I

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.

I''m getting the following error (when doing script/backgroundrb start) on my local machine, which is running os x 10.4.11. However, it works just fine on my linux server.

Hi, I still have the following error while loading backgroundrb : /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20081215/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ packet-0.1.14/lib/packet/packet_master.rb:116:in `exec'': No such file or directory - packet_worker_runner 14:11:maintenance_worker:64:/home/ antz/declix.com/production/lib/workers (Errno::ENOENT) from

Hi. I am using BackgrounDRb to process thumbnails and upload to S3 - things are hunky-dory in development (thumbs are generated, these are uploaded to S3, the metadata is saved to trhe DB, and I get a nice status page updated by periodic calls via ask_status), but when I tried to deploy to our staging server and stop/start BackgrounDRb via Capistrano, things blew up - well, not exactly,

Hi, I''ve been using bdrb for a while and just recently found the need to use the ask_status/register_status functionality of my worker. This is the error I get whenever the register_status method is encountered: ...lib/workers/session_worker.rb:10:in `create'': undefined method `register_status'' for #<SessionWorker:0xb6e7d52c> (NoMethodError) from

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

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''

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

Hello, I'm working with the gam function and due to the amount of data I am working with it is taking a long time to run. I looked at the tips to get it to run faster, but none have acceptable side effects. That is the real problem. I have accepted that gam will run a long time. I will be running gam many times for many different models. To make gam useable I am looking at splitting the work
