[Bug 944273] [NEW] Scheduler is not working when OpenERP is running with gunicorn

 

Vo Minh Thu (OpenERP) (vmt-openerp) has assigned this bug to you for OpenERP Server:

The OpenERP scheduler ois not working correctly in version 6.1 when
OpenERP is running using gunicorn. In the initial investigations that
I've done I think that the problem is because each gunicorn worker is
running in a separate thread, so the memory space is different. OpenERP
is designed to be stateless, so this should be fine. However, in the
case of the scheduler, tasks are being pushed and popped from the
heap... which will be different for each process.

I think that a more robust solution would be add the tasks to the
database and the cron Master Thread process would read from the database
(instead of the heap).

This is straightforward to verify: create some scheduled actions that
are due to be run (there are some in the system by default) and start
OpenERP using gunicorn. You should see that the scheduled actions aren't
run. Then compare what happens when OpenERP is started in a single-
threaded manner e.g. ./openerp-server -d dbname. This time you'll see
that the schedule actions are run.
