I figured out why this was happening only on my production server and not on my development one. The issue was with Phusion Passenger not having the following set: PassengerUseGlobalQueue on Without the global queue on, it couldn't process long running background tasks. Now that it's set, issue/concern #1 is fixed. So, I'm now able to run all manual user run tasks fine from the view using the code I supplied above. However, I'm still trying to figure out how to have the view become updated as the background process runs. I'm thinking of different ways to implement it but none seem to feel very rails like so I'm still interested in hearing possible solutions. The current solution: Click manual user run task from view. Rake task processes in the background and writes to a log file. Click link to read results. Results are read from the log file and shown in the view. The envisioned solution: Click manual user run task from view. Rake task processes in the background. Results are updated every 10 seconds in the view. I hope that helps.
