similar to: What does this error mean?

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.

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, 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

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

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 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

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

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

I have two workers (ie two files in my RAILS_ROOT/lib/workers directory) on my Rails app. When I run a top on my box, I see *three* processes called packer_worker_r. Shouldn''t I just be having two? What is the third process for? Here is an extract of the output from my top command. The PIDs are 7084, 7085 and 7083. ============================================ PID USER PR NI VIRT

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''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''ve been using bdrb for a while and just recently found the need to use the ask_status/register_status functionality of my worker.

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''
