Hello there, I need a Worker Class to be Singleton-like, that means there must be at maximum one Instance at a time.

Hi, i had a little problem a few minutes ago. somehow the backgroundrb process got mad and consumed all the cpu power available, i think it got an endless loop. i dont know why, no exceptions were thrown. could this be an issue of bgdrb or ruby or rails (as i load the rails environment) -- Michael Siebert <info at siebert-wd.de> www.stellar-legends.de - Weltraum-Browsergame im

Hello, i need to have some jobs scheduled in the background and executed at specific times. I wanted to make a worker who does that - and it works a little bit - but i had an enlightment... why not make bgdrb itself play that role? i mean, the MiddleMan has already everything needed! a timer thread, currently used only for deleting old workers and the workers itself. since im not familiar with

Hi This may be a repeat question on the list, but I could not find an answer. I cannot install backgroundrb via the usual svn method as the firewall does not permit it. Is there a place where I can download the latest version please? Thank you David --------------------------------- Get your own web address for just $1.99/1st yr. We''ll help. Yahoo! Small Business.

I have noticed that occasionally (about 50% of the time) when i deploy (using capistrano) my app to a production server, i have to ssh into the box and manually stop and start backgroundrb to get it to load my workers. this is my basic setup i have 2 workers: lib/workers/mp3_worker.rb => takes a hash of params to downsample an mp3 lib/workers/flv_worker.rb => takes a has of

Hi there! I just have discovered this wonderful plugin a few days ago and I uploaded a little test to my Dreamhost account. I simply got a worker that resizes an image that the user uploads. So this morning I launched the BackgrounDRb server on my account with the rake task and began to upload some test images. The server daemon has been executing until a few minutes ago, I suppose because of

Hey Guys, In the readme for Backgroundrb it says that windows support has been depcreated for this version, but then it goes on to mention how to use it in Windows. So I''m not sure if it should be running on windows or not, so I''ll ask anyway. Also, I''m new to ruby and I''m also new to server administration, so I apologize if my questions are pretty

Hi, I am running ruby 1.8.4 rails 1.1 on Mac OSx and I am getting the following error installing the plugin. Any ideas ?

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

Does any have any idea why I would get: Mysql::Error: Too many connections I am creating new threads in my background process. I know allow_concurrency is set to true. Does this create a new database connection when a new thread is created? Because what I''m doing is similar to this: @threads[model.id] = Thread.new do end I also kill off these threads and over write some of the

Hi Folks, I''ve got a tiny little problem using MySQL-backed ActiveRecord in my worker class. Sometimes it just blocks infinitely when I try to access it. I don''t know whether it is in AR itself or in the SQL driver. It just stops doing anything, logging nothing, no exceptions are raised. I don''t know if it matters that I call the worker''s methods via

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''ve created a couple of tasks in my deploy.rb file for starting and stopping backgroundrb on the remote server. The stop task runs fine and kills the process. And the start task *seems* to run successfully, but backgroundrb is never started on the remote host. Has anyone had success with this? Here are my deploy tasks: desc ''Start backgroundrb server (default

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

I''m just getting started wtih backgroundrb, and unfortunately hit a snag right away... I''m running the latest releases of rails, backgroundrb, slave and daemons. I created a simple worker class, using the generator, which currently does nothing but print the arguments that are passed to do_work. I''m running backgroundrb using ''./script/backgroundrb
