Re: Curbing semaphore messages

November 5th 2019 UTC

Justin, Sorry for the delay in replying. No, the semaphore error message does not occur if the scheduled jobs are run from the admin page. As far as I could tell, no lock files were being written to .tmp when the Schedule::Cron jobs ran. Thanks for the assistance in identifying the warning in the code.I have modified the warning, retaining the part to the process ID number and the last part with the code line number. This shorter message is a useful 'heartbeat' signal, in these early days of my Dada Mail implementation. ...Continue Reading

Re: Curbing semaphore messages

Hmm - do you get the same error, (Semaphore does not exist to delete), if you run the Schedule Jobs URL, just in your browser? Does that file, (/home/very/long/path/user/private/.dada_files/.tmp/scheduledtasks.lock) actually exist? I guess if you want a bodge, you could just remove the line that throws that warning, Look for: warn "PID: $$ Semaphore does not exist to delete at, '" . $self->lockfile; in, dada/DADA/App/ScheduledTasks.pm and just remove it, Cheers, -- Justin J: Lead Dadaist.url: http://d ...Continue Reading

Re: Curbing semaphore messages

November 3rd 2019 UTC

Justin, thank you for your reply and thank you for developing Dada Mail and making it available.The script for running Schedule::Cron is very simple and based on one of the examples supplied with Schedule::Cron. It's located in cgi-bin alongside dada and started with my SSH shell. So that it keeps going when I exit the shell, I use nohup with an ampersand to keep it in the background. So far, it's kept running. Dada Mail is run by Schedule::Cron using the precise curl command Dada Mail proposes via the admin pages.I was ...Continue Reading

Curbing semaphore messages

November 2nd 2019 UTC

Hello Developers, I have just joined the list. Over the past couple of weeks, I have installed Dada Mail on the shared host of the website of the astronomy society I am involved in, to provide a discussion list.This was not without challenges (ssh cli install only, no CPAN,additional Perl modules for SSL built locally and uploaded, etc) but it is almost ready now for society members' use. Cron and crontab were also unavailable on the shared host, so I have made  and uploaded Schedule::Cron, a cron-like Perl schedul ...Continue Reading

Multiple Test Mass Mailing Recipients

October 14th 2019 UTC

Howdy everyone, I'm working on a feature to allow you to send to >1 email addresses when you send out a test message. You can do this in one of two ways: * first is to simply type in the addresses you want the test to be sent to, similar to how it works now. Main difference is that the app will take multiple addresses instead of just one. This is done per draft message, so that list of testing addresses you send to can be different for each draft. * second way is by curating a Testers list, which can be add ...Continue Reading
