Can not run the web2py scheduler using postgresql

问题:

I can run the scheduler using sqlite database, but I will got the error when I change to using postgres database.

Code (task.py):

def AutoRemoveCacheData():
    return 'OK'

from gluon.scheduler import Scheduler
scheduler = Scheduler(db,dict(AutoRemoveCacheData=AutoRemoveCacheData),migrate=True)

Error message:

Anybody know how to solve this problem?

Thanks!

回答1:

I'm having the same error.

• Development environment: windows version of web2py w/ included web server and sqlite
• Production environment: web2py tied to Apache on Linux web server and PostgreSQL.

To get the actual error cause, I tweaked gluon/scheduler.py. After removing the guilty try/except of Scheduler.send_heartbeat() I got the following error: NotSupportedError: type oid 114 not mapped to py type

Googling around with this error I found that discussion where Niphlod says: "The problem comes from pg8000 not supporting the json type. Use psycopg2 instead."

So, let's try with this Python module...
