This question started initially as disk space issue, however, we nailed it down to gearman problem. It bombs own logfile with the following message:

  ERROR 2015-10-29 13:05:37.000000 [  main ] accept(Too many open files) -> libgearman-server/gearmand.cc:
788

so that the log file can grow up to 70 Gb in a day. I checked the worker code: we use node-gearman and properly close both mongodb connection and gearman worker process:

db.close();
worker.end();

In the application we close gearman connection as well:

gearman.close();

This question is similar to the other one, but there is no solution except for increasing ulimit restrictions. Even if we increase them, we don't know if we overcome the new ones soon. Need to get the reason of this.

I have a problem with Gearman 0.32 (ppa:gearman-developers/ppa)- it doesn't save queue in Postgres for queue persistence.

  • Gearman is running, I can add jobs (example with DEBUG verbosity on pastebin for better readability: http://pastebin.com/3uRds4yi )
  • Postgres connection string is OK - I managed to login/access db using same data from same host
  • Gearman connects to Postgres - if queue table doesn't exist in DB it creates it.

And despite all that NOTHING is added to DB. I have 0 workers registered and as I add new jobs to queue they get queued, but never saved in persistent storage.

I have shutdown Gearman, using the (echo shutdown ; sleep 0.1) | netcat 127.0.0.1 4730 -w 1 command. I've also stopped Supervisor using /etc/init.d/supervisord stop. However, when I run a ps -aux, there are Gearman workers still running (i.e. /usr/bin/php gearmanworker.php). If i try to kill the worker, a new one is spawned immediately afterwards. Is there another database or something I must wipe to properly shutdown Gearman and its workers?

Any help is much appreciated - thanks!

I have Gearman installed, running and passing jobs around perfectly fine but only when I manually start up the job queue with this command:

/usr/sbin/gearmand -p 4730 -vvvv -u gearman

If I do this I have another EC2 instance running as a worker and a third passing in jobs. Perfect, but I don't want to have to keep a terminal open (obviously) or mess around with screen. I'd like this to run on startup.

So:

$ ps aux | grep gearman
gearman    745  0.2  0.2   8096  1388 ?        Ss   19:11   0:00 /usr/sbin/gearmand --pid-file=/var/run/gearman/gearmand.pid --user=gearman --daemon --log-file=/var/log/gearman-job-server/gearman.log --listen=127.0.0.1

Looks good to me. But when I tell my worker to connect:

$ php workers/resize.php 
Waiting for job...
PHP Warning:  GearmanWorker::work(): gearman_connection_flush:write:111 in /home/ubuntu/workers/resize.php on line 20

Fail!

Also I have noticed nothing is going into the log file (it was not created automatically, but was referenced in this init.d script on install). I tried creating it and even chowning to gearman:gearman but no joy there, so it's tough to debug.

I'm not sure if this is even possible but can I show the stdout of a linux command via webserver?

The command I want to run is echo 'status' | nc localhost 4730 which returns a string with status of the gearman job server.

$echo 'status' | nc localhost 4730
function1      0       0       0
function2      0       0       1

My server's running nginx. I want to open a URL like http://domain.tld/gearman-status and it should return the current status by running that command.

What should I put in the location block of nginx to do that?

location /gearman-status {
  ?
}

Thanks
