I've figured it out: when using a central db for the scheduler, there is no need (at least in this case) of calling web2py.py -K with all the apps, just with the main app, in my case:
python /home/user/web2py/web2py.py -K masterapp Sorry I bothered you. Maybe someday someone is having the same problem as me, and ends up here with the solution :) El lunes, 11 de mayo de 2015, 21:15:03 (UTC-3), Lisandro escribió: > > I have *one master app* that handles the *main db, in which the scheduler > tables have been created*. > > This master app has a scheduler.py module that looks like this (for now, > with no function tasks defined): > > # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- > from gluon.scheduler import Scheduler > scheduler = Scheduler(db, max_empty_runs=5) > > > In the other hand, I have *multiple secondary apps*, each one with it's > own db. > All this applications *instantiate the scheduler specifying the central > db*, like this: > > def test(): > print 'this is just a test task' > return True > > from gluon.scheduler import Scheduler > db_scheduler = DAL('postgres://user:password@host/centraldb', > lazy_tables=True, migrate=False) > scheduler = Scheduler(db_scheduler, max_empty_runs=5) > > > Then, *the tasks are queued from the master app*, like this: > > scheduler.queue_task('test', period=60, repeats=0, application_name='app1') > scheduler.queue_task('test', period=60, repeats=0, application_name='app2') > scheduler.queue_task('test', period=60, repeats=0, application_name='app3') > > > Then, I start the scheduler like this (from unix cron, every 5 minutes or > so): > > python /home/user/web2py/web2py.py -K app1,app2,app3 > > I can see the task moves to "RUNNING" state, but *the task stucks running > until the configured timeout*. > > Am I using correctly the "application_name" parameter of the > "queue_task()" function? > I assume that the scheduler will pick up the task and check for that > field, so the task function will be called in the context of the > corresponding application. > > Notice that the scheduler.py model of the master app doesn't have any > function defined.
