My app uses the Task Queue to send email messages...and a few days ago, I must have gotten a bad task in the queue. One of the tasks has been failing and retrying endlessly, eating up all my email quota (I guess they count against your quota even with the message fails to send).
Yesterday I paused my "email" queue, deleted a few tasks that looked like they could be causing problems, and was hoping to dispatch the rest by hand this morning to make sure they went out. But again, as soon as my quotas were reset, my app went wild and blew up all the email quota for today. In the logs I see references to retries for things like "X-Appengine-Queuename:email, X-Appengine-Taskname:2162362032997459024" - but the email queue was supposedly paused, and that task number was not even in the queue! It's probably one of the ones I deleted by hand - is it expected for this task to still be present and running? Today I purged the email queue and set it to a retry limit of 2...so I'm hoping that helps. Maybe I'm misunderstanding how Task Queues are supposed to work - I thought that pausing it would stop any pending tasks from executing until I resumed it? I hope someone can shed some light on this...thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
