Delayed_job not executing the perform method but emptying the job queue
- by James
I have a fresh rails 3 app, here's my Gemfile:
source 'http://rubygems.org'
gem 'rails', '3.0.0' gem 'delayed_job'
gem 'sqlite3-ruby', :require =
'sqlite3'
Here's the class that represents the job that I want to queue:
class Me < Struct.new(:something)
def perform
puts "Hello from me"
logger.info "Hello from me"
logger.debug "Hello from me"
raise Exception.new
end
end
From the console with no workers running:
irb(main):002:0> Delayed::Job.enqueue Me.new(1)
=> #<Delayed::Backend::ActiveRecord::Job id: 7, priority: 0, attempts: 0, handler: "--- !ruby/struct:Me \nsomething: 1\n", last_error: nil, run_at: "2010-12-29 07:24:11", locked_at: nil, failed_at: nil, locked_by: nil, created_at: "2010-12-29 07:24:11", updated_at: "2010-12-29 07:24:11">
Like I mentioned: there are no workers running:
irb(main):003:0> Delayed::Job.all
=> [#<Delayed::Backend::ActiveRecord::Job id: 7, priority: 0, attempts: 0, handler: "--- !ruby/struct:Me \nsomething: 1\n", last_error: nil, run_at: "2010-12-29 07:24:11", locked_at: nil, failed_at: nil, locked_by: nil, created_at: "2010-12-29 07:24:11", updated_at: "2010-12-29 07:24:11">]
I start a worker with script/delayed_job run
The queue gets emptied:
irb(main):006:0> Delayed::Job.all
=> []
However, nothing happens as a result of the puts, nothing is logged from the logger calls, and no exception is raised. I'd appreciate any help / insight or anything to try.
