[ARCHIVED] Delayed jobs log filling hard drive

[zach_springer]

Hey everyone,

I recently installed an open source version of Canvas on one of my servers. It mostly is working just fine except for two issues. 

1. Is my delayed_jobs.log file is almost half a gig after a few days and when I tail the output, it just keeps printing this every half second or so

[- -]   SQL Delayed::Backend::ActiveRecord::Job Load (2.0ms)  WITH limited_jobs AS (SELECT id, ROW_NUMBER() OVER () AS row_number FROM (SELECT "delayed_jobs".* FROM "delayed_jobs" WHERE (run_at<='2020-03-16 19:42:16.685123' AND locked_at IS NULL AND next_in_strand=TRUE) AND "delayed_jobs"."priority" BETWEEN 0 AND 1000000 AND "delayed_jobs"."queue" = 'canvas_queue' ORDER BY "delayed_jobs"."priority" ASC, "delayed_jobs"."run_at" ASC, "delayed_jobs"."id" ASC LIMIT 1 FOR UPDATE) subquery) UPDATE "delayed_jobs" SET locked_by = CASE row_number WHEN 1 THEN 'canvas-lms:1645' END, locked_at = '2020-03-16 19:42:16.686549' FROM limited_jobs WHERE limited_jobs.id="delayed_jobs".id RETURNING "delayed_jobs".*  [production:1 master]

2. Emails don't appear to be sending out correctly. Meaning, when I invite a new student to a course it doesn't send them an invite email. Any ideas?

P.S I'm using a ubuntu 18.04 instance

Thanks

The developers and engineers don't hang out on the community too often.

The best place for these questions is the IRC channel or Mailing List.

Canvas Dev & Friends - Instructure Tech Blog

If you jump on the IRC channel and ask the question, it may take some time for a response (especially now) but you'll get one.
