I found that under linux I was able to get the scheduler to successfully run
a task by making sure os.environ['WEB2PY-PATH'] was defined. What I did was
edit gluon/scheduler.py and change lines 61-62 from
if 'WEB2PY_PATH' in os.environ:
sys.path.append(os.environ['WEB2PY_PATH'])
to
if 'WEB2PY_PATH' in os.environ:
sys.path.append(os.environ['WEB2PY_PATH'])
else:
os.environ['WEB2PY_PATH'] = os.environ['PWD']
Of course that'll only work if you're launching web2py from its own folder.
(i.e. *python web2py.py -K scheduler* will work but *python web2py/web2py.py
-K scheduler* will not). So a better patch than mine is definitely in
order, but at least we know the scheduler can actually work :)
