I got a ASP.NET MVC 4 web application and quartz.net running as a windows service and common logging configured according to these sources :
http://geekswithblogs.net/TarunArora/archive/2012/11/16/install-quartz.net-as-a-windows-service-and-test-installation.aspx
http://geekswithblogs.net/TarunArora/archive/2012/11/17/quartz.net-windows-service-configure-logging.aspx
and with this code in Global.asax in place:
var properties = new NameValueCollection();
properties["quartz.scheduler.instanceName"] = "ServerScheduler";
// set thread pool info
properties["quartz.threadPool.type"] = "Quartz.Simpl.SimpleThreadPool, Quartz";
properties["quartz.threadPool.threadCount"] = "5";
properties["quartz.threadPool.threadPriority"] = "Normal";
// set remoting expoter
properties["quartz.scheduler.proxy"] = "true";
properties["quartz.scheduler.proxy.address"] = "tcp://localhost:555/QuartzScheduler";
// construct a scheduler factory
ISchedulerFactory schedFact = new StdSchedulerFactory(properties);
// get a scheduler
IScheduler sched = schedFact.GetScheduler();
sched.Start();
IJobDetail jobDetail = JobBuilder.Create<SimpleJob>()
.WithIdentity("simpleJob", "simpleJobs")
.RequestRecovery()
.Build();
ITrigger trigger = TriggerBuilder.Create()
.WithIdentity("simpleTrigger", "simpleTriggers")
.StartNow()
.WithSimpleSchedule(x => x.WithRepeatCount(4).WithIntervalInSeconds(10))
.Build();
sched.ScheduleJob(jobDetail, trigger);
and the job:
public class SimpleJob : IJob
{
public SimpleJob()
{
}
public void Execute(IJobExecutionContext context)
{
Debug.WriteLine("I Executed at " + DateTime.Now.ToString());
}
}
and now if I run the app the log produces something like this 5 times
19:35:23 [ServerScheduler_QuartzSchedulerThread] DEBUG Quartz.Core.QuartzSchedulerThread - Batch acquisition of 1 triggers
19:35:23 [ServerScheduler_QuartzSchedulerThread] DEBUG Quartz.Simpl.SimpleJobFactory - Producing instance of Job 'simpleJobs.simpleJob', class=Navigate.Quartz.Jobs.SimpleJob
19:35:23 [ServerScheduler_QuartzSchedulerThread] DEBUG Quartz.Core.QuartzSchedulerThread - Batch acquisition of 1 triggers

19:35:23 [ServerScheduler_Worker-1] DEBUG Quartz.Core.JobRunShell - Trigger instruction : NoInstruction
Then deletes the trigger and carries on, but no job is executed and no lines are written to debug output
if I run the scheduler embedded in the app, however, by not passing the NameValueCollection to the StdSchedulerFactory
ISchedulerFactory schedFact = new StdSchedulerFactory();
everything works fine and I get the lines outputted 5 times every 10 seconds
I Executed at 28.05.2013. 19:47:48
I Executed at 28.05.2013. 19:47:58
I Executed at 28.05.2013. 19:48:08
I Executed at 28.05.2013. 19:48:18
I Executed at 28.05.2013. 19:48:28
What am I missing, why isnt the windows service actually executing the code, the service is running as Local System, nothing changes if I change it to administrator account tho. Any help will be appreciated.

I think that the service may actually be executing the code but you are not seeing the output. Try changing the Debug.WriteLine() to use Common.Logging so that the output is included in the same log that Quartz is using for its log output. For code examples see http://netcommon.sourceforge.net/docs/1.2.0/reference/html/logging.html.
I also looked at the code that we are using in our implementation, and I see that we are not doing a .Start() after .GetScheduler(). Since you are working with a service running Quartz, the scheduler should already be started, and you should just work with the scheduler that is returned from .GetScheduler(). Try removing the .Start() from your code.

I have a grails application and a quartz job running on it. The job contains the below code similar to below .
class MyJob{
static triggers = {}
def printLog(msg){
String threadId = Thread.currentThread().getId()
String threadName = Thread.currentThread().getName()
log.info(threadId+" - "+threadName+" : "+msg)
}
def execute(context)
{
printLog("Before Sync");
synchronized(MyJob){
printLog("Inside Sync");
try{
printLog("Before sleep 20 minutes")
Thread.sleep(1200000)
printLog("After sleep")
}catch (Exception e){
log.error("Error while sleeping")
}
}
printLog("After Sync")
}
}
I have scheduled it to trigger a job every minute
I can see in the logs that one thread is getting the synchronized block and then the other jobs start piling up, waiting for the thread to finish, this is working as expected.
The issue here is the jobs stop after 10 minutes by that time it have created 10 Threads. Out of that one is sleeping for 20 minutes and other 9 are waiting for the 1st thread to release the lock. Why is no new jobs created ?
I saw in some answers I can fix the issue by modifying my triggers section like below
static triggers = {
simple repeatInterval: 100
}
I tried the above option and its still showing only 10 jobs.
From where its taking the default configuration of 10 ?
How can i modify the value to do infinitely ?
I am new to grails and quartz, so I have no idea what is happening.
I think the Grails plugin sets the threadCount to 10 in the bundled quartz.properties file, assuming you're using Grails 3 you can override in application.yml like this:
quartz:
threadPool:
threadCount: 25
Grails 2 - application.groovy
quartz {
props {
threadPool.threadCount = 100
}
}
In general, it's not a a good idea to lock the Job thread with sleeps
If you have a job running a long process you must to split it in several jobs in order to release the Thread as soon as posible
We have installed quartz.net scheduler service and configured a (memory)job to run daily # 10 pm. In case the server hosting this service is restarted, is there a way to force the job to run as soon as the service comes up? In normal scenario job should fire at 10pm as scheduled, but whenever the server/service is restarted, we want the job to run immediately even if it is not scheduled to run at that time. If there's some configuration value to achieve this, that would be the best option.
Write a little code that reads a small xml file (custom one of your own doing)....
and put it in your startup code.
foreach( xmlElement in yourXmlFile)
{
string someJobName= ""; /* read xml for jobName */
String someJobGroup= ""; /* read xml for job group name */
Trigger trigger = TriggerBuilder.newTrigger()
.withIdentity(someJobName, someJobGroup)
.startNow()
.build();
}
You can perform this with the help of WithMisfireHandlingInstructionFireAndProceed method of CronScheduleBuilder as shown below:
ITrigger trigger = TriggerBuilder.Create()
.WithIdentity("trigger1", "group1")
.StartNow()
.WithSchedule(CronScheduleBuilder
.WeeklyOnDayAndHourAndMinute(DayOfWeek.Monday, 09, 00)
.WithMisfireHandlingInstructionFireAndProceed()
//MISFIRE_INSTRUCTION_FIRE_NOW
.InTimeZone(TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById("GTB Standard Time"))
)
//.ForJob(myJobKey)
.Build();
scheduler.ScheduleJob(job, trigger);
I have some Quartz.Net jobs which are running on a Schedule
scheduler.ScheduleJob(
new JobDetailImpl("MarkAsSolutionReminderJob", typeof(MarkAsSolutionReminderJob)),
new CalendarIntervalTriggerImpl("MarkAsSolutionReminderJobTrigger", IntervalUnit.Hour, 6));
Is it possible for me to manually trigger this Job to run when I want it to?
So it continues to run as normal, but in a specific piece of code I might want to just run it out of schedule once or twice. But it doesn't affect the scheduled job?
Is it possible for me to manually trigger this Job to run when I want it to?
Yes, you can trigger this job as and when you need.
Use void TriggerJob(JobKey jobKey) method for this as below:
scheduler.TriggerJob(new Jobkey("MarkAsSolutionReminderJob"));
If you want to pass some data to the job while executing it on demand, you can also do that by just using another overload void TriggerJob(JobKey jobKey, JobDataMap data); of the same method as below:
Dictionary<string, string> data = new Dictionary<string, string>();
//populate dictionary as per your needs
JobDataMap jobData = new JobDataMap(data);
scheduler.TriggerJob(new Jobkey("MarkAsSolutionReminderJob"),jobData);
I've implemented my own quartz job classes that take in a service method . However, the service doesn't seem to be injecting properly into my job class as i always get a nullpointer exception when accessing a service.
How do i get the services to be injected during the trigger of the job .
Any suggestion on how to invoke the method in the service from the Job class
Update 1 : Added the job code and log messages
import org.quartz.Job;
import org.quartz.JobExecutionContext;
import org.quartz.JobExecutionException;
import org.quartz.JobDataMap;
import com.unitrac.app.reportcentre.report.ReportService;
// Logging
import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;
class ReportJob implements Job {
def reportService;
def grailsApplication;
// Logging
private static final log = LogFactory.getLog(this);
void execute(JobExecutionContext context) throws JobExecutionException {
// execute job
JobDataMap jobMapData = context.getMergedJobDataMap();
try
{
log.debug("In Report Job - executing its JOB at "
+ new Date() + " by " + context.getTrigger().getName());
String groupName = context.getTrigger().getJobKey().getName();
log.debug("group Name : " + groupName);
reportService.invokeMethod();
}
catch( Exception e )
{
log.error("Exception: $e");
}
}
}

For what it's worth. I tried all the suggestions above, and it' didn't work for me. I eventually settled for Injecting the service manually from the Grails ApplicationContext.
def ss = Holders.grailsApplication.mainContext.getBean(SampleService.class)
This is better than creating a service using new()
Make sure your job class in in grails-app/jobs and try removing implements Job.
You actually don't need to remove "implements Job". Ran into the same sort of problem...
I am guessing that you are creating the job with JobBuilder.newJob(...)
Using newJob breaks the injection (it is bypassing standard object creation patterns). You can, usually, just put the things that you were loading into JobDetail into the trigger.
Then use: ReportJob.schedule(trigger)
Doesn't even need an instance to work. All injection is happy. Yay, Reports!
I added #Autowired() annotation to the fields I need wired in and this worked for me.
I have the web application in visual studio web express and having db in sql server express.
I want to perform insert 100 records on 5:00 PM daily.web application is developed in asp.net MVC and vb.net. and deployed on server machine with IIS 7.5. what logic i should follow?
For me i'm using this approach and it's good till now :)
I've enum with Tasks to do and the time for the task to restart and this time in seconds like this:
public enum ScheduledTasks
{
CleanGameRequests = 120,
AnotherTask = 30,
}
Then i start all my tasks in the Application_Start to ensure that the task will execute while my application is run
protected void Application_Start()
{
...............
// Add the tasks on Application starts
AddTask(ScheduledTasks.CleanGameRequests);
AddTask(ScheduledTasks.AnotherTask);
}
OK now here is the trick :)
in the AddTask method i just add new empty item to cache and set the AbsoluteExpiration for it according to the task time and the call the suitable method for this task.
Actually my i couldn't explain the idea very clear but here is the code:
private static CacheItemRemovedCallback _onCacheRemove;
private void AddTask(ScheduledTasks task)
{
// Add my `CacheItemRemoved` method to be called on cache removed
_onCacheRemove = new CacheItemRemovedCallback(CacheItemRemoved);
// Add new key to the cache with the name of this task
// and Expiration time acccordin to the task
HttpRuntime.Cache.Insert(task.ToString(), (int)task, null,
DateTime.Now.AddSeconds((int)task), Cache.NoSlidingExpiration,
CacheItemPriority.NotRemovable, _onCacheRemove);
}
Then all I've to do is to select suitable method for each task in the CacheItemRemoved method :
public void CacheItemRemoved(string key, object time, CacheItemRemovedReason r)
{
//Get Task enum object
var task = (ScheduledTasks)Enum.Parse(typeof(ScheduledTasks), key);
// Select the suitable method to depending on the Task Enum object
switch (task)
{
case ScheduledTasks.CleanGameRequests:
GameRequest.CleanUp();
break;
case ScheduledTasks.AnotherTask:
Service.AnotherTask();
break;
}
// Don't forget to re-add the task to the cache to do it again and again
AddTask(task);
}
Last thing remain for your case is to check the time if it's 5:00 PM and i advice you to put this check in your Service class.
Hope this helped you :)
Since you are using Sql server express edition you can't create scheduled jobs in sql side. But you can try other options like.
Quartz.Net
Service Broker approach
Windows services (If your hosting provider allows)
