Created a new web2py-scheduler.conf file start on runlevel [2345] stop on runlevel [016] respawn limit 8 60 script exec sudo -u root python /srv/tv-fe/web2py.py -K app end script respawn and another conf file tv-fe.conf start on runlevel [2345] # When to stop the service stop on runlevel [016] # Automatically restart process if crashed respawn respawn limit 5 60 # Specify resource limits # Make sure you have set the system limits accordingly limit nofile 65536 65536 # Modify scheduling priority, ranges from -20 (most favorable) to 19 (least # favorable) nice -10 # Out Of Memory (OOM) killing score, ranges from -999 (very unlikely to be # killed by OOM killer) to 1000 (very likely) or 'never' oom score -555 # Essentially lets upstart know the process will detach itself to the background expect fork expect daemon # Run before process pre-start script [ -d /var/log/tv/frontend ] || mkdir -p /var/log/tv/frontend end script # Start the process script exec python -- /srv/tv-fe/web2py.py --nogui -a '' -p 8000 -i 0.0.0.0 & end script The log from the upstart web2py-scheduler.log is web2py Web Framework Created by Massimo Di Pierro, Copyright 2007-2013 Version 2.2.1 (2012-10-21 16:57:04) stable Database drivers available: SQLite(sqlite3), MySQL(pymysql), PostgreSQL(pg8000), IMAP(imaplib) starting single-scheduler for "app"... /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/riak-2.0.1.post5-py2.7.egg/riak/util.py:148: UserWarning: ``solr`` is deprecated, use ``fulltext_search``, ``fulltext_add`` and ``fulltext_delete`` directly value = self.fget(obj) the tv-fe.log is ubuntu@ip-XX-X-X-XX:/var/log/upstart$ sudo tail -f tv-fe.log value = self.fget(obj) web2py Web Framework Created by Massimo Di Pierro, Copyright 2007-2013 Version 2.2.1 (2012-10-21 16:57:04) stable Database drivers available: SQLite(sqlite3), MySQL(pymysql), PostgreSQL(pg8000), IMAP(imaplib) 2013-09-11 11:38:54,936 - WARNING - web2py - GUI not available because Tk library is not installed no password, no admin interface please visit: http://0.0.0.0:8000 use "kill -SIGTERM 11998" to shutdown the web2py server /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/riak-2.0.1.post5-py2.7.egg/riak/util.py:148: UserWarning: ``solr`` is deprecated, use ``fulltext_search``, ``fulltext_add`` and ``fulltext_delete`` directly value = self.fget(obj) Entry in the scheduler worker table >>> workers = db(db.scheduler_worker).select() >>> for each in workers: ... print each ... <Row {'status': 'ACTIVE', 'first_heartbeat': datetime.datetime(2013, 9, 11, 11, 39, 10), 'is_ticker': False, 'worker_name': 'ip-10-0-0-13#12026', 'group_names': ['main'], 'last_heartbeat': datetime.datetime(2013, 9, 11, 11, 43, 46), 'id': 1}> Entry in the scheduler_task table <Row {'vars': '{}', 'period': 600, 'group_name': 'main', 'times_failed': 0, 'id': 1, 'last_run_time': None, 'uuid': '67263a73-c086-45e0-9c38-23c892af95c7', 'stop_time': None, 'retry_failed': 3, 'function_name': 'total_devices', 'status': 'QUEUED', 'timeout': 300, 'start_time': datetime.datetime(2013, 9, 11, 11, 41), 'args': '[]', 'next_run_time': datetime.datetime(2013, 9, 11, 11, 43, 10), 'enabled': True, 'sync_output': 0, 'times_run': 0, 'task_name': 'total_devices', 'application_name': 'app/default', 'repeats': 0, 'assigned_worker_name': ''}> am I doing it the correct order, if yes then why doesnt the worker pickup the task.
