similar to: install problem

Thanks to many of you, I''ve got my session management working with BackGrounDRb. Very cool. So now I need to deploy it. I''m on a shared hosting plan (at a2hosting in case that matters). Are there any issues I should expect to have to deal with in getting them to deploy the plugin? Anything special I need to do? I''m wondering in particular about the ''start

I''m getting an error I don''t understand when I try to install the BackgrounDRb plugin. I installed the plugin yesterday, or thought I did, and tried this morning to start the daemon. Got an error and so tried to reinstall using: >ruby script\plugin install svn://rubyforge.org//var/svn/backgroundrb --force The first line of the reponse says: svn:

I''m trying to do the tutorial at http://www.infoq.com/articles/BackgrounDRb. A little more than half-way through it says "Upon instalation, the plugin writes a config file into RAILS_ROOT/config/backgroundrb.yml." It didn''t happen for me. I installed the plugin with: ruby script\plugin install svn:\\rubyforge.org//var/svn/backgroundrb It added a bunch of files,

Greetings! I could use some advice on which version of BackgrounDrb to use in my current situation. I''ve implemented the initial, single-process multi-threaded version in a previous site, but have no experience with the new version. Current situation is as follows. The application involves personal health information and so has very stringent session management requirements. My

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

Can a worker kill themselves when they''re ''done''? Or do I have to do that either from the controller or the worker manager?

I found this stack trace in my logs. My worker name is MiscWorker, and Qualifier is a Rails model. uninitialized constant MiscWorker::Qualifier: /Users/bryan/ Workspace/sandbox/scraper-trunk/config/../vendor/rails/activerecord/ lib/../../activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:476:in `const_missing'' /Users/bryan/Workspace/sandbox/scraper-trunk/lib/workers/

I installed via piston and when in vendor/plugins/backgroundrb, I attempt to run the default rake task: (in /home/wallace/new_bdrb-wheels/vendor/plugins/backgroundrb) rake aborted! no such file to load -- spec/rake/spectask /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require'' /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `require''

I have a previous question regarding long tasks and the thread_pool (sorry for the dup, I didn''t see the first go through). To try and track things down, I made a change based on a suggestion found in the archives. I moved my import contacts worker to its own file and set the pool_size to 1. class ImportContactsWorker < BackgrounDRb::MetaWorker set_worker_name

Hello, Just upgraded to the the latest backgroundRb.I am getting an error when i run the task "rake test:plugin". Any idea why I am getting this?

Hi, * Background I develop rails app with backgrounDRb where one of its parent folders has a space in its name. * Problem rake backgroundrb:start and rake backgroundrb:stop do not work * Analysis This is because the line for start and stop in backgroundrb_tasks.rake do not quote #{scripts_src} * Patch Quote the #{scripts_src} in the two lines so they become

Anybody got any experience using this ( http://greg.rubyfr.net/pub/packages/ruby-xslt/files/README.html ) ? I asked my hosting company (a2hosting.com) about XSLT processors for Rails and mentioned this one. Four hours later I get email that they''ve installed it. Thing is, the documentation didn''t generate, and when I execute ''gem list --local'' it''s

I''m trying to use BackgrounDRb to do image processing on large uploaded zip files of images, but $script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org//var/svn/backgroundrb gives me this: /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/open-uri.rb:88:in `initialize'': No such file or directory - svn://rubyforge.org//var/svn/backgroundrb (Errno::ENOENT) I can install the old version with $script/plugin install

Hi all, BackgrounDrb was exactly what I needed for a project I''m working on at work. Everyone''s really impressed, and now it''s time to put the system into production. My question is, how do I avoid having to manually run the startup and shutdown scripts (or the rake tasks) for backgroundrb? I tried putting a system "rake backgroundrb:start" in my

Hi all My problem is that: With reference to http://backgroundrb.rubyforge.org/ 1---I have download backgroundrb from http://opensvn.csie.org/ezra/rails/backgroundrb to my vendor/plugin in my application folder. 2-- after that I used the command to run :-rake backgroundrb:setup -- trace From my application

Sorry to be such a bother but I''m not getting this. I have two models: Emrec and Session (I''m using AR for session mgmt.) In my worker I can access the Emrec model and delete a record, AS LONG AS I don''t try to access the Session model. With the Session model access commented out as below, the Emrec record gets deleted. If I uncomment those lines, the Emrec

Greetings all; I''ve just moved my app into production and BackgrounDRb is writing to development.log. The backgroundrb.yml file specifies production, as does environment.rb. A little background (no pun intended ;-0 ) I''m using the ''old'' version of backgroundrb for session management. In the app, whenever a visitor changes pages I record the time in a db

I just ran into the same problem as James Hughes (thread "Rake tasks fail silently, how to debug?"). I''m wondering if the rake backgroundrb:setup task should always overwrite the script/backgroundrb files to be on the safe side. Or at least warn that some already exist. Maybe there''s a way to be noisy if the backgroundrb:start task doesn''t actually start a

Hi Guys,You can start backgroundRb in different environments using -e option. ./script/backgroundrb -e production I like to run a rake task from my worker - something like rake RAILS_ENV=proper_environment thinking_sphinx:start I am not sure how to figure out the environment with which the backgroundRb is started from inside a worker task. Any help is appreciated. Thanks for your time. Regards
