i am trying to run a process that analyzes many rows of data - i'm querying 50 rows (using cursors), doing work, then writing data to a blobstore file. i can't get it to run for more than a few minutes on the backend before it is shutdown - as far as i know i am not hitting any memory limits, and we have a crap-ton of budget available.
i'd prefer to share my appid privately....let me know if you would like it. christian On Monday, September 10, 2012 4:41:53 PM UTC-7, Amy Unruh wrote: > > Can those on this thread let me know if you've seen *unusually many* of > these "Process terminated because the backend took too long to shutdown" > incidents recently? > If so, can you let me know your app id and runtime? > > As Takashi noted, it is normal for this to happen sometimes (and the > shutdown hook is the way to handle it). > > -Amy > > On 10 August 2012 10:44, jon <[email protected] <javascript:>> wrote: > >> Thanks for the reply Takashi. >> >> >> App Engine sometimes needs to stop Backend instances for various >>> reasons other than your manual intervention. >> >> >> May I ask if this is the definite cause for "Process terminated because >> the backend took too long to shutdown." , or is it something that you >> thought might have explained it? >> >> I'm asking to determine if this is something that I can fix and forget, >> or if it's something that can happen every now and then despite handling >> the shutdown case properly? >> >> >>> You can write a shutdown >>> hook to do something for your halfway job within the 30 seconds >>> window. >>> >> >> We completely forgot about the shutdown case.
