Resque Workers Stuck

[Avishai Weiss]

Hi, has anyone had any experience using Resque? I'm using it to download and process thousands of images in the background, and then stick them into S3. But, after a while, the jobs seem to get stuck and them just kind of die. How do you make them stay alive or restart if something happens that kills off the worker or gets it stuck?

Thanks

Avishai

We run about 150 resque workers in production.

We use GOD to monitor the process and alert us on anything from a worker taking too much memory or anything else we may want.

GOD monitors the process and can wake it up if it dies.

I gisted a configuration for you.

We restart resque on every deployment with signaling god to quit and then god -c {god_file_location}
