BackgrounDRb 0.2.0 Release! Complete rewrite.
Hello Folks- I am really happy to announce the release of BackgrounDRb 0.2.0 . This is a complete rewrite and re-architecture of this codebase. I want to thank skaar for all of his hard work. I put out a call for help with the new architecture and skaar stepped up bigtime. I had already written the new scheduler and cron compatible syntax and moved to multi process architecture. But he

new BackgroundRB
Hey Greg- Yes I am sorry, the new architecture uses fork and named pipes and a bunch of unix stuff to do its magick. Now you may be able to port it to qwork on windows, but I don''t think it is possible :( I''m really sorry about this but I need this thing to be as robust and solid as it can be and in the end windows isn''t compatible. Now you may be able to

How you want BackgrounDrb to behave
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.

backgroundrb scheduler
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

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

backgrounDRb problems with results and MiddleMan
Hi there, I''ve been experimenting with implementing BackgroundDRb in my rails app but am running into some problems. The primary problem I''m getting is in cleaning up worker threads, or getting any kind of response out of worker threads. If try using the response function/hash in my Worker the worker will not execute reporting that response is an unknown variable or function.

New Backgroundrb Speed Issues?
The new backgroundrb seemed to me to be markedly slower than the old one. So, I ran a "side-by-side" comparison test using a worker that I had written which parses a CSV file and loads the results into a database. The results? The latest version appears to take twice as long to run the same code as the previous version. Has anyone else experienced speed issues with the new

Scheduled workers only run once unless you call self.delete inside the worker
I had a worker scheduled to run every minute with backgroundrb_schedules.yml: ebay_runner: :class: :ebay_auction_worker :job_key: :ebay_auction_runner :trigger_type: :cron_trigger :trigger_args: 0 * * * * * * This worker posts an auction to eBay from a queue of auctions every minute. I was having a problem where the worker would run ok the first time, but never any subsequent minutes

postgres barfage revisted
First of all, I''d like to do what I''ve seen several others here do: thank Ezra and any other contributors for producing a really great plugin. Even though I''m having some minor problems, this is all so approachable and easy to work with and dig into... I hate to think of the hoops you''d need to jump through (both as creator of such a system and as a user) to

Backgroundrb-devel Digest, Vol 9, Issue 1
Hi Bill, I have "version 1" backgroundrb running on my development server with rails 1.2.1, with no issues (other than the left over DB connections blocking up my MySQL server, which isn''t exactly a new problem). Going to move production servers to rails 1.2.1 very soon, I''ll post back if there''s any trouble. Still would *really* like to get version

accessing session data in worker
Is there something special I need to do to access session data in a worker? I''m using an AR session store. I''ve been working with Ezra''s tutorial, modifying it a little here and there to figure it out. So I changed the progress bar to a simple count-down in the worker which sends back the count to display in the view. No big deal. But if I try to access session

Connection to backgroundrb is lost when exiting action method
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 -
