Hello, I''m trying to send emails from a backgroundrb worker and the email doesn''t send. I get no log messages in the sendmail log or the system log, nothing in the backgroundrb logs at all, nothing in the production log. Below is my code for each component worker: class QuizReviewerWorker < BackgrounDRb::MetaWorker set_worker_name :quiz_review_sender def create(args =

Hi all, I''m trying to create a worker to send a mail to all the users in my db. Right now I''m doing the tests, this is the code in my worker (Masivo is the ActionMailer subclass): def do_work(args) @progress = 0 @logger.info("MAILER: starting job") records = Record.find(:all) total = records.size records.each_with_index do |record, idx|

Hello all, After upgrading to Rails 1.2.2, I''m getting a strange error when one of my workers is invoked. The worker is responsible for monitoring a folder (using directory_watcher) and emailing a specific user when a file is dropped there, but it''s bombing immediately upon instantiation (or maybe when trying to instantiate ActionMailer?) with the error "Text is not a

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

I have bdrb successfully set up and running in a local project. It''s doing two things: 1) processing large csv files and using ActiveRecord to insert 2) sending large batches of emails using ActionMailer In development both work well. I see my ActionMailer emails in the log (though it''s the development.log -- odd?) On the production server csv processing works well, but

Hi It seems the following code do not transfer multiple arguments to the worker instance: controller: ======= # recipients = Hash # mailing = Mailing model instance session[:job_key] = MiddleMan.new_worker( :class => :mail_queue_worker, :args => { :recipients => recipients, :mailing => mailing },

I am pretty confident that mailers do not work in backgroundrb. Can anyone confirm this? Because when I try to do Notifier.deliver_some_method I get an error saying it cant find the templates for my email. The funny thing is that when I run script/ runner Notifier.deliver_some_method it works just fine. Any ideas? Thank You, Ben Johnson E: bjohnson at contuitive.com O: 800-341-6826 M:

Hi there, I have a scheduled task which I started from Rails, set to run every 5 minutes, it takes probably about 20-30 seconds to execute (it''s aggregating some feeds). It ran for about 5 hours and then mysteriously stopped -- the logs show no errors. This kind of sucks because it''s like a silent failure, has anyone else had this problem? --simon --

Hello, Bravo Ezra for Backgroundrb! What an elegant piece of engineering. I envision many folks like myself looking at our CPU hogging executables and finally seeing a clean path to the Web. I was wondering if any folks have a good strategy for calling out to a C++ (or any other compiled) executable from a worker. Is the only option to call system() from a worker? That feels a bit unsatisfying.

I have installed backgroundrb. I can start it. I have read everything I can get my hands on, and have read the list for a few months. I have written a worker, and am ready to start. This worker reads a queue, and processes it (sends queued emails). Sends 10, sleeps for a minute, sends 10 until done - very straightforward. My question is, what would be the best way to run this? I have

Hi, I am having a few problems with actionmailer, mainly taking to long to send emails.

Can anyone explain why BackgrounDRb is switching form DRb to SMTP protocol? That seems like a lot of overhead to add to the messaging back and forth? Orion

hi everyone, I have this case where I need to check some records in the database of a specific data condition every 5 seconds and do some business logic if this scenario is true.

Hi all. I''m running a nightly job that is creating a CSV file and sending to member via SMTP. I got the following error after about 20 emails or so: Net::SMTPServerBusy Too many connections from IP... Is there a way (using ActionMailer) to open a connection and send multiple emails. Or could I make sure the connection is closed before opening another? The only other option is to send
