Our app has been having recurring issues with never-ending datastore backups since the beginning of May. We do a nightly scheduled backup of our datastore database. Every now and then since May (sometimes a few days in a row, sometimes only once every weeks), we have backups that keep on running forever:
- We can see in the datastore admin page that the backup is still running - We see mapreduce tasks being constantly queued in our default queue, and backups never end (we have had backups running for more than weeks without ending). - Even after aborting the infinite backups, we keep seeing mapreduce tasks being queued every second, and the process can't be stopped. The result is that we constantly have ah-builtin-datastore instances running handling these requests that seemingly fail, and so our monthly bill is a lot higher than it usually is. The only workaround we found was, after aborting the backup, disabling our default queue for a few seconds, purging it a few times, and then it seems to stop queuing mapreduce tasks when we enable it again. Does anyone have any clue what's going on? thanks, Remko PS: I filed an issue for this on https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues (12120), but not getting any response there, so I'm trying the forums. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
