667894 - developer-stage9: add calendar cron job

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Infrastructure & Operations Graveyard :: WebOps: Other, task)

Description

[Luke Crouch [:groovecoder]]

I converted the devmo app to South migrations, but the first migration assumes an empty db. We need to run:

./manage.py migrate devmo 0001 --fake

To push the South migration table past migration 0001 manually.

An easier way to do this might be with a schematic migration. That's how I did it for demos and taggit:

https://github.com/mozilla/kuma/blob/master/migrations/06-taggit-convert-to-south.sql

after following lorchard's advice, now we just need to add this cron job for stage9

*/1 * * * * manage.py cron devmo_calendar_reload

Comment 3

[Luke Crouch [:groovecoder]]

oops, that should be * */1 * * * - every hour.

Comment 4

[Luke Crouch [:groovecoder]]

need to run and activate this cron job to populate the data for bug 650838

Comment 5

[Jake Maul [:jakem]]

Added this job:

21 * * * * apache cd /data/devmostage/src/developer-stage9.mozilla.org/kuma; python26 manage.py cron devmo_calendar_reload > /dev/null

Once an hour, on the 21 minute mark. '22' picked randomly, in the hopes of not colliding with too many other cron jobs on this server (mradm02). If you need this to run at the top of the hour specifically, let us know.

Also let us know if it breaks in general. Seems to work from the command line, and gives no output.
