I'm a long time developer but new to ruby, rails, heroku, and, in fact, web applications in general. I'm trying to create a background process to do tasks outside the normal request/response cycle. I've tried to use backgroundrb but when I try to generate a worker I get:
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:865:in `initialize': getaddrinfo: Name or service not known (SocketError) from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb: 865:in `open' from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:865:in `open_server' from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:759:in `open_server' from /usr/lib/ ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:757:in `each' from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb: 757:in `open_server' from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:1339:in `initialize' from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:1627:in `new' from /usr/ lib/ruby/1.8/drb/drb.rb:1627:in `start_service' ... 21 levels... from / usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.0.2/lib/commands/generate.rb:1 from /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require' from /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/ custom_require.rb:27:in `require' from script/generate:3 Not sure if there are some extra configuration steps or gotchas with using backgroundrb on heroku. Does anyone have any thoughts? Should I even be trying to use backgroundrb? -Chris --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Heroku" group.
