issue with readme example about agenda HOT 10 CLOSED

Hey sorry for the delay. Your Mongo is likely too old a version. You need
at least Mongo 2.4+. Let me know if the works.

from agenda.

hi thank you, with 2.4.9 it starts nicely, but the task is executed only once :o. I supposed it was a periodic task.

Can you run the following in the mongo console and paste the output....

db.agendaJobs.find().toArray()

from agenda.

[
{
"_id" : ObjectId("532f157d912a9cf106a6e1f0"),
"data" : null,
"lockedAt" : ISODate("2014-03-23T17:10:21.628Z"),
"name" : "a task",
"nextRunAt" : ISODate("2014-03-23T17:10:21.622Z"),
"priority" : 0,
"repeatInterval" : "1 minutes",
"type" : "single"
}
]

from agenda.

You forgot to call done() 😄

var Agenda = require('agenda');
var agenda = new Agenda({db: { address: 'localhost:27017/agenda-example'}});

agenda.define('a task', function(job, done) {
  console.log("a task is running ... say hello");
  done();
});

agenda.every('1 minutes', 'test');
agenda.start();

a task is running ... say hello
a task is running ... say hello
a task is running ... say hello
^C

Ooops, thanx. Now it works well on Ubuntu13/mongo2.4.9. Unfortunately there is another issue on OSX10.9.2/mongo2.4.8.

see paste http://pastebin.com/1CA9X9ZG

Another insidious aspect of this issue is that the error is presented only at first launch, if you relaunch the code it silently runs without actually executing tasks.

@dadaista that error is basically what happens when you try and run a job that isn't defined.

from agenda.

@rschmukler yeah, but the same code works well in ubuntu :o

from agenda.

@dadaista that's likely because the job that is undefined does not exist in your ubuntu database, but does in your other.

Can you give me the content of the agendaJobs database and the definition file so I can get a better idea of what's going on?

Closing for lack of activity, please re-open whenever you can.
