Hi everyone,
I'm new to backgroundrb, and I'm trying to get started with a simple example, yet with no success.
This is the code that I have in RAILS_ROOT/lib/workers/testing_worker.rb
class TestingWorker < BackgrounDRb::Worker::RailsBase
def do_work(args)
# This method is called in it's own new thread when you
# call new worker. args is set to :args
logger.info('TestingWorker do work')
results[:do_work_time] = Time.now_to_s
results[:done_with_do_work] || = true
end
end
And this is the code that I have in RAILS_ROOT/app/controllers/mytest2_controller.rb
class Mytest2Controller < ApplicationController
def new
key = MiddleMan.new_worker(:class => :testing_worker)
worker = MiddleMan.worker(key)
#worker.other_method
#worker.delete
end
end
And this is what I get when I access: http://host:3000/mytest2/new
NameError in Mytest2Controller#new
uninitialized constant TestingWorker
RAILS_ROOT: script/../config/..

I don't understand why I'm getting the "uninitialized constant" error. I've read other postings with the same issue, and I understand that you must restart the server after adding/making modifications to your workers. The server is restarted with the following commands: ./script/backgroundrb stop and ./script/bacgroundrb start, right? (I don't even think this applies to me, since first I created all necessary files for the example and then I started the server; I did restart the server several times just to make sure this is not a problem)
I also tried to use the console and I get a similar message.
Btw, I have changed nothing in the default setup, except in /server/lib/backgroundrb/console.rb, where I commented out the line "require 'irb/completion'" due to a strange error that I was getting.
Thanks,
Tiberiu
PS. I want to make sure that the way I downloaded backgroundrb is not faulty. Instead of getting it via subversion (trying to save time by not involving my admin), I just downloaded file by file from http://svn.devjavu.com/backgroundrb/tags/release-0.2.1.
