I just encountered strange behaviour with scheduler. I'm using the latest
trunk web2py version on windows 7 with TK window, so I start scheduler from
TK scheduler menu. I had a code that run fine and during some monitoring I
have added the following line to this working code:
print(x.get('companyname',""))
Suddently I noticed that next scheduler_run entry is created with status
'STOPPED' and with no error traceback. Also the worker heartbeat stopped
and there was no last hearbeat datetime refresh anymore. Worker stopped
working. Removing this line and restarting scheduler worker enabled
scheduler and things were working correctly once again.
So I have experimented and found out that x.get('...') returns utf8 value
so I have changed the print line to
print(x.get('companyname',"").encode('utf8'))
and things are working fine now ... but not sure why, without the
encode('utf-8'), the worked failes ...
