Hello there! I made a little patch for scripts/backgroundrb/start to make detach work on win32! It needs win32-process to work (it''s a lib from the Win32 Utils project on rubyforge: http://rubyforge.org/projects/win32utils/). To install it, just issue a "gem install win32-process --include-dependencies". If the script detects the :detach option (and a win32 platform), it tries

Hi, i had a little problem a few minutes ago. somehow the backgroundrb process got mad and consumed all the cpu power available, i think it got an endless loop. i dont know why, no exceptions were thrown. could this be an issue of bgdrb or ruby or rails (as i load the rails environment) -- Michael Siebert <info at siebert-wd.de> www.stellar-legends.de - Weltraum-Browsergame im

Hello, i need to have some jobs scheduled in the background and executed at specific times. I wanted to make a worker who does that - and it works a little bit - but i had an enlightment... why not make bgdrb itself play that role? i mean, the MiddleMan has already everything needed! a timer thread, currently used only for deleting old workers and the workers itself. since im not familiar with

Hi there, as i stated before in my talk with Ben Johnson, I hacked a little bit and here it is - autostarting jobs. I think someone (eh... Ezra) should review it and check to see if i made any mistakes. Also i dont have the possibility to test it on other-than-Windows systems, but since the calling process works just the same, it should do well... Now the neccesary evil, the documentation... If

I have a few simple controllers doing plain, simple crud in a standard way. now it''s not very DRY to write a funtcional test for each controller, since they are all doing the same (apart from a few variable names, but that could be easily inflected or so). is there a way to do this? e.g. does inheritance work with tests, so i define a base test first, inherit my other tests and add a few

Hello folks, does backgroundrb delete workers who exited do_work()? i experienced it doesnt (and that freaked me because i didnt know that for several hours). is there a way to let the middleman or so delete workers who did their job imediately after they''re done? if not, i coud think of that as a nice improvement. greetz -- Michael Siebert <info at siebert-wd.de>

Hello there, I need a Worker Class to be Singleton-like, that means there must be at maximum one Instance at a time.

Hello all, Can anyone recommend any free(ish) Ruby photo album components? Preferably something with a user structure built in. Cheers. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

In an *.rhtml, why do I need to add <% for product in @products %> in order that I may call an <img class="list-image" src="<%= product.img_url %>"/>. Is there not another way to skip the "for product" line? I really dont want to include it. I tried @products = product but it does not work. Can anyone help shed light on this matter? -- Posted via

Hi to all. I''m a newbye, and this is my first contact with list. I have installed ruby and rails. My ruby local home page works, but development.log tell me "Permission denied - /var/www/html/rubyapp/../config/../tmp/sessions//ruby_sess.e2677250ed380e4c " what''s happen? I think permission rights are ok (simlink towards public are root|root with 777). Someone can help

Ezra, Sorry for inundating the list. In using the autostart, repeat_every, and first_run, I noticed a behaviour I didn''t expect. I would like the job to run starting at 2am, and then every 24 hours. So I set first_run to Time.now.beginning_of_day + 2.hours, and repeat_every to 24.hours. The problem is if backgroundrb starts up at 6am (due to a code change or server bump), then the
