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

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, I''m having errors when running webrick or the console. webrik starts, but give me an error when I try to load my controller.

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, I''m using a room model throughout my code. I keep doing the following: @rooms = Room.find(:all, :order => ''buildings.name, room_number'', :include => :building) I have to copy this into several of my controllers and I feel that I''m violating the DRY principle. Can I set this as the default order in my model? If so, how would I do that? Thanks,

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.

I''ve noticed that I can never just restart BackgrounDRb by itself. As soon as I do that, Mongrel can no longer pass requests off to it. The only way to get it working again is by restarting Mongrel.
