Hi gang, Thanks to other help I''ve gotten on this list, I''ve got backgroundrb up and running using postgres alongside my rails app. I''ve designed the system to have several eternally-running workers that periodically poll the database to see if there''s any work for them to do, and set things up in the config file to make them restart quickly if any of them

hi I am implementing delayed_job in my rails app. *my code is:* file name is: my_worker.rb require "delayed_job" require "rubygems" class MyClass def perform while true do puts "I am in My class!!!" sleep 2 end end end Delayed::Job.enqueue( MyClass.new ) #m.perform when i am executing this(ruby my_worker.rb ) file it gives me error

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

I''ve got some workers that I want to have running all the time. Right now I''m just launching them manually, by requesting a special page in my rails app that includes lines like: MiddleMan.new_worker(:class=> :receiver, :job_key=>:r, :args=>{:sleep_time=>10}) This strikes me as a really weak way to fire up my workers. I basically want to automate things so

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

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

Hi Ezra, Thanks for the great work on BackgrounDRb. I have come across a couple of problems. 1. I wanted to define a simple class in the worker file to wrap up and pass back some data to my controller. It seems that if I create the class either inside or outside of my worker class (in the same file) it gets wrapper by a DRb::DRbUknown object and therefore cannot be accessed from my controller.

I''m running the latest backgroundrb mainly for scheduled tasks support. As per the documentation I created the backgroundrb_schedules.yml with the following: simple_label: :class: :document_sorter_worker :worker_method: :do_work :job: :bleh :trigger_args: :start: <%= Time.now + 5.seconds %> :end: <%= Time.now + 10.minutes :repeat_interval: 1.minute Under

Hello all, I think I am having a problem with a scheduled worker. I believe I have it configured correctly to run on a cron schedule each morning at 1:50am. I start up the server and it runs correctly the first time and sometimes a second time, but after that it doesn''t seem to run again. The log shows no activity and I have a link in my rails app to start it manually and that

If you''re in a timezone with an abbreviation that map to more than one timezone (eg, CST), first_run may not work as you expect it to. Witness: $ irb -r time irb(main):001:0> Time.now => Wed Oct 04 20:37:24 CST 2006 irb(main):002:0> Time.parse(Time.now.to_s) => Thu Oct 05 10:37:30 CST 2006 Notice the 14 extra hours... Time.parse converted the time thinking CST meant -06:00

Hi there, We''ve been using previous version of bdrb (drb based one) for a while and it was running relatively OK. We recently attempted to upgrade to the new version to keep up / use supported version but we ended up reverting to the older version. Here are the things that moved us to revert : 1) With the workers we never manage to pass this error: '''' You have a nil

I have a scheduled worker that runs every minute, checking for new eBay auctions to post. If it finds an auction, then it posts it. If there are no auctions in the database that are queued up, it simply does nothing. I got the worker to finally run as a scheduled worker, every minute. However, after about 30-45 scheduled runs, it simply stops running. My backgroundrb_schedules.yml file: ------

Greetings all, Unit tests are passing, but I''m having mucho problems getting brb to run without exceptions for more than 6 hours.

Hi I have previously used railscron for server-side manipulation of the database but had a heap of trouble working with it. BackgrounDRB was suggested to me by a friend. I upload some files via acts_as_attachment and these go lie in a dir structure that i desire. What I want from the background process is to periodically (not user initiated) do some file-structure manipulation i.e. I want to

Hi List, I'm having a bit of an odd problem with asterisk and outgoing zap calls. Tzafrir has been kind enough to help me get the logging sorted out so I have some idea of what's going wrong, but I'm a little flummoxed. Essentially the symptoms are as follows; Make a SIP call from Cisco 7960 or 7940 to asterisk, where it is routed out on a ZAP (x100p) line. After

I''ve been checking out all the async gems and plugins for Rails, and decided to give BackgroundRb a shot. Unfortunately, I''ve not even been able to get past the initial stages. Whenever I call MiddleMan.new_worker, it invariably returns nil. The log file remains empty. I''ve only tried this from the console so far. If I can''t even do this successfully,
