Hello, I have been using samba to authenticate my squid users to Active Directory. Because of the amount of users, I would like to set up my ACL's based on groups, rather than individual user accounts. I have successfully joined my samba box to our windows domain (2k). For some reason I had to enter the domain controller name instead of the domain name when doing so. I am now having issues

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 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 -

Hello, I am trying to make DRb calls to a external server from a backgrounDRb worker, but I''m getting always the next exception when I make the remote call. > ERROR: > drbunix:///tmp/backgroundrb.11175/experimenter_worker_3e899de945f0803a82cd257cfac316d0_0_0.0738904928422051 > - #<Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - >

In response to my Rails Weenie post today[1], someone mentioned that I try BackgrounDRb to help take the strain off my application. 1: http://rails.techno-weenie.net/question/2006/7/13/nested-loops- best-way-to-send-messages-to-blog-subscribers I''ve just tried to install and use BackgrounDRb with my app, but I''m afraid that I''m not too versed in running processes

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

Hi, I''m having a problem where connections started through BackgrounDRb::MiddleManDRbObject.init are not stopped, resulting in an ever growing established connections between my Mongrels and remote backgroundrbs I added DRb.stop_service to my code executed after requests that init MiddleManDRbObjects but that does not help. Any ideas? Thanks, Robert Bjarnason

Hi there, Backgroundrb is working pretty well for me but I have a job that launches two of the same job, apparently a minute(?) apart from each other. Should this be happening if I have repeat interval enabled with a job_key? It seems like it should wait until the job is finished before launching a new instance. --Backgroundrb_schedules.yml-- city_updater: :class: :city_updater_worker

Hi! My cron-based worker is being indeed invoked by backgroundRB at correct times. But... After several runs it can no longer find DB columns! The same query, which was running OK an hour ago starts to throw MySQL error about unkown column in where clause. If I restart backgroundrb it works for some time but stops working after several invocations. Has anyone epxerienced the similar beahviour?

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...") Error: /activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:123:in `const_missing'': uninitialized constant BackgrounDRb (NameError) from

Hi, Ok, As i promised.. I am working on new version of BackgrounDRB, which is getting close and will be out soon. I need some feedback from you guys. So, please reply back. The code has changed significantly and its no longer using DRB. But I will keep the name BackgroundRb. Ok, in new API, a worker looks like this: require "net/smtp" require "guid" class NewsletterWorker

Can''t believe I can''t see the problem here, but after a few hours bashing my head on a brick wall, going to risk looking stupid by seeing if anyone can point out my idiocy (that''s the worst thing about coding on your own). Trying to get BackgrounDRb to take over the scraping task which is currently being done in a Rails controller. That''s not the problem at

hi, i am trying to grasp some concepts about mongrel, rails, and backgroundrb on how they all work in terms of threads and such. is there a book about distributed ruby and processes? i havent seen any on amazon yet... from my blog reading, i have some questions.... rails can handle 1 request at a time and can buffer to a certain extent? when mongrel instances are created, a copy of the rails

Hey. I have a very annoying problem, and was wondering what is wrong. Suppose I have backgroundrb running, and then I have an action in some controller. In the action I define a worker. When leaving the action, suddenly the connection to backgroundrb is lost: DRb URI: druby://localhost:22222 Pid: 3976 Autostart... done druby://localhost:42531 - #<Errno::EBADF: Bad file descriptor -

I have a question concerning where to use the synchronize function. The point of it is to put all of the code blacks passed to this function in a queue. This make sure that code gets ran one at a time. This is required when doing any kind of database activity in backgrondrb and multiple threads. Otherwise I lose the connection to my database. So here is my question: Do I need to do: @lock =

I have a big report to produce from a Rails app that takes several minutes to put together. I hoped backgroundrb would be able to pull together all the ActiveRecord stuff in the background then throw it back to Rails for rendering. It seems, however, that I can''t pass an array of ActiveRecord objects from the worker back to Rails. Do I have that right? Another possibility was to do
