delayed-job

I am trying to generate an excel file in my delayed job method in model. which is working fine in local. i'm using scheduler to run delayed jobs in heroku. Jobs are getting finished successfully without generating excel. my delayed job method looks like: def self.generate_excel Axlsx::Package.new do |p| p.workbook.add_worksheet(:name => "Stock Details") do |sheet| sheet.add_row ["S.No", "ProductId", "Title"] products.each_with_index do |prods, index| sheet.add_row ["1", "1234", "product title"] end end p.serialize("#{Rails.root}/app/views/stock_details/stock_details.xlsx") end I'm using

I'm using the delayed_job plugin in Rails to do background processing, and I'm experiencing a hiccup in the 'agile development' I've been experiencing so far in Rails... Usually in rails if I hit an error / want to add some new functionality - I just add some code and refresh the page and the new code runs. With delayed_job, it seems like the job class isn't being reloaded... if a job fails and I go and fix the error and fire the job again, the old code runs again. Is there any way to make delayed_job load the newest version of the job class before invoking it? Just in case this has anything

I am using Ruby on Rails 3.0.9 and I am trying to setup the delay_job gem. All works if, after rebooting the Apache2 server, I run in the Terminal\Console following commands: RAILS_ENV=development script/delayed_job stop RAILS_ENV=development script/delayed_job -n 2 start However, since I always want to start the workers on application start, in my config/initializers/delayed_job.rb I add the following code (that handles both development and production mode): if Rails.env.development? system 'RAILS_ENV=development script/delayed_job stop' system 'RAILS_ENV=development script/delayed_job -n 2

I am trying to get delayed_job working as a windows service. I am so thoroughly sick of windows I can't even begin to put it into words, but I am stuck with it for now due to 3rd party dependencies. Running rake jobs:work starts the worker in a console with no problems. I've created an empty windows service to start and shutdown the worker using sc create DelayedJobWorker... . However, I can't get the service to start and stop the worker. I'm not sure what the best approach is - what I should be parameterising the service with / asking it to call. Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.

I am trying to run delayed_job using monit, but its failing to run as rvm's paths (local rvm installation per user basis) are not available to the command. My application is a rails2 app with bundler. Monit is not able to find bundler. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how i can tell about the rvm paths to monit? I am getting the error [rails@x-rws1 current]$ monit start delayed_job -c config/delayed_job.monitrc 'delayed_job' start: /usr/bin/env 'delayed_job' failed to start no such file to load -- bundler /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `gem_original_require'
