Hi Greg, I thought cron-jobs also had 10-minutes to execute, however someone pointed out the cron docs still state that cron jobs are subject to the 'normal' request limit. Are the docs incorrect (or unclear)?
"A cron job will invoke a URL, using an HTTP GET request, at a given time of day. A URL invoked by cron is subject to the same limits and quotas as a normal HTTP request, including the request time limit. Cron jobs run only for the default version of your application." http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/config/cron.html Robert On Wed, Jan 26, 2011 at 18:28, Greg Darke <[email protected]> wrote: > Both Taskqueue tasks and Cron tasks get 10minutes to execute. > > Have you looked at your logs to determine what error is occurring in your > code. > > On 27 January 2011 06:54, Kaan Soral <[email protected]> wrote: >> Add the job to a queue instead of running it directly in cron >> that way it can run for 10 minutes >> >> On Jan 26, 12:24 am, DougW <[email protected]> wrote: >>> I have a cron setup to run a python file on the vizumetricsupdate >>> application that is constantly failing although there is no error in >>> the log.
