I have added a scheduler to my web2py app to be able to start tasks, possibly at the same time. However, I'm noticing that the when a second task is queued, it becomes assigned to the same worker as the first task, and so its status is ASSIGNED until the first one finishes. If I start a third task, it does get assigned to a new worker, but then the fourth task would get assigned to the 2nd worker again. As a result it seems like every other simultaneous task waits, which defeat the purpose of having multiple workers.
My setup: mysql database I have added a scheduler with a simple: from gluon.scheduler import Scheduler scheduler = Scheduler(db) I use this code to auto start the Scheduler with 20 workers: description "web2py task scheduler" start on (local-filesystems and net-device-up IFACE=eth0) stop on shutdown respawn limit 8 60 # Give up if restart occurs 8 times in 60 seconds. exec sudo -u mywebserveruser python /home/mywebserveruser /web2py/web2py.py -K myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp,myapp respawn In the default controller I start tasks with something like: session.task_id = scheduler.queue_task(myCustomScript, pargs=[session.myargs], immediate=True, timeout=604800) I have no idea what I am doing wrong so I would appreciate any suggestions. -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
