Hi, I''ve been having some issues integrating bdrb on a cruisecontrolrb server It''s related to the way we stop the bdrb server. The thing is, right now when we stop the process we are killing the parent of the group of the process. This is ok if you''re running script/backgroundrb stop directly from the console, but if I''m running this from another process,

This might be a really simple question, with a simple solution. I have two rails apps running on the same box. Right now I am starting two Backgroundrb servers (11006 and 11007). Wondering if it might be possible to run only one and have the second app point to the first app''s server? TIA, Kit

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, all. Just wondering if anyone has tried using the Paperclip file upload plugin with Backgroundrb. My current implementation uses attachment_fu - I save the file initially to the file system without generating thumbs, then a bdrb process picks up that file, generates thumbs, and saves to S3. This works fine and dandy, the only hitch is I want to save image metadata in the same table

Hi. I am using BackgrounDRb to process thumbnails and upload to S3 - things are hunky-dory in development (thumbs are generated, these are uploaded to S3, the metadata is saved to trhe DB, and I get a nice status page updated by periodic calls via ask_status), but when I tried to deploy to our staging server and stop/start BackgrounDRb via Capistrano, things blew up - well, not exactly,

Hi all, Just had an interesting production failure while updating my Rails application - a bunch of code previously in config/environment.rb was put into config/initializers. That resulted in me having to wrap some code in config/environments/production.rb into an after_initialize do ... end block When backgroundrb was run against that code, the setup done in that after_initialize block

Hi there I''m using the latest release (r300) and ''script/backgroundrb start'' works perfectly when executed on the server, but when put inside a Rake task, it doesn''t launch the worker processes. The Rake task is as follows: task :start_backgroundrb do run "cd #{current_path} && ./script/backgroundrb start" end When I run this task, the

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 -

I just installed backgroundrb on our server. When tryin to start via script/backgroundrb i get a no method error. ./script/backgroundrb start /home/tom/ralf_dev/vendor/plugins/backgroundrb/server/lib/backgroundrb_server.rb:34:in `format_message'': undefined method `strftime'' for "2006-12-04T15:53: 23.419225 ":String (NoMethodError) from

Hi! As you might remember I''m having a problem of backgroundrb stopping calling my workers after some period of time. I tried adding logging to backgroundrb source code but it didn''t help. So, after digging through internet I''ve found several gdb tools and here''s what I''ve discovered: After attaching to a backgroundrb ruby process it turns out that it

Hi, I have my rails sites tricked out with capistrano, and backgroundrb, so I can easily use the ant tasks, but I would like to be able to start and stop backgroundrb from within rails. I have a few reasons for this: 1. Using fastcgi, backgroundrb would start under the apache user and the same mod_security context as apache, instead of my developer account which has many more privileges. 2.

Howdy, I''m trying to use monit with backgroundrb, but it seems that backgroundrb.ppid isn''t holding the id of the backgroundrb task. jodi at soup/var/www/the-soup/current $ cat log/backgroundrb.ppid 23182 jodi at soup/var/www/the-soup/current $ ps -efl 1 S deploy 23184 1 0 75 0 - 27056 stext 11:27 ? 00:00:04 backgroundrb 1 S deploy 23186 23184 0 76

Hi list, I''m having some issues getting backgroundrb to play nice with more than one mongrel. When I run my app on a single mongrel instance it works fine. I have two different problems show up in my backgrounrb_server.log. The top of the backtrace is shown here: 20070130-12:03:03 (92473) failed to find slave socket - (RuntimeError) 20070130-12:03:03 (92473)

It''s that time again friends. skaar has been at it again and has greatly improved the stability of the new system. And Ara Howard has helped a ton by working with us on the slave library to iron out the wrinkles./ The results is a lot nicer backgroundrb for everyone. I have to say another huge thanks to skaar. He has singlehandedly wrote almost all of this new version and many

Hi I just tried to move my project to rails 1.2.1 on my locomotive development setup. It seems that backgroundrb is not willing to start up anymore. If I switch locomotive back to 1.1.6, everthing is fine. This is the error I get while attempting to start backgroundrb: /Applications/Locomotive2/Bundles/standardRailsJan2007.locobundle/
