scheduling problem using quartz

[vaibhavmishra]

Hi,

I am using Spring 1.2. I tried a simple job scheduling by reading
http://static.springframework.org/sp...cheduling.html

Basically, I have written a simple class that extends QuartzJobBean.

package example;

import org.apache.commons.logging.Log;
import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;
import org.quartz.JobExecutionContext;
import org.quartz.JobExecutionException;
import org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.QuartzJobBean;

/**
 * @author Vaibhav Mishra
 */
public class QuartzSample extends QuartzJobBean {

    /**
     * logger for this class
     */
    private Log log = LogFactory.getLog(QuartzSample.class);

    /*
     * (non-Javadoc)
     * 
     * @see org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.QuartzJobBean
     *      #executeInternal(org.quartz.JobExecutionContext)
     */
    @Override
    protected void executeInternal(JobExecutionContext arg0)
            throws JobExecutionException {
        log.error("Sample job executed using Quartz.");
    }
}

And I have specified the spring beans as -

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC "-//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN"
    "http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd">

<beans>
	<bean name="sampleJob"
		class="org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.JobDetailBean">
		<property name="jobClass" value="example.QuartzSample" />
	</bean>

	<bean id="cronTrigger"
		class="org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.CronTriggerBean">
		<property name="jobDetail" ref="sampleJob" />
		<!-- s m h d M [y] current setting 6:20 pm -->
		<property name="cronExpression" value="0 20 18 * * ?" />
	</bean>

	<bean id="schedulerFactory"
		class="org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.SchedulerFactoryBean">
		<property name="autoStartup" value="true" />
		<property name="triggers">
			<list>
				<ref bean="cronTrigger" />
			</list>
		</property>
	</bean>
</beans>

I have my application deployed in JBoss 4.0.2.
JBoss restarts without any exception, but the things does not seems to be working. I even get the following line printed on JBoss console -

11:56:26,187 INFO  [QuartzScheduler] Scheduler QuartzScheduler_$_NON_CLUSTERED started.

But, job does not run at scheduled time.
Please help.

I tried the same thing using TimerTask and it is working fine.

package example;

import java.util.TimerTask;

import org.apache.commons.logging.Log;
import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;

/**
 * @author Vaibhav Mishra
 */
public class TimerTaskSample extends TimerTask {

    /**
     * logger for this class
     */
    private Log log = LogFactory.getLog(TimerTaskSample.class);

    /*
     * (non-Javadoc)
     * 
     * @see java.util.TimerTask#run()
     */
    @Override
    public void run() {
        log.error("Sample job executed using TimerTask.");
    }
}

And

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC "-//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN"
    "http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd">

<beans>
	<bean id="sampleTimerJob" class="com.alacre.f1.TimerTaskSample">
	</bean>

	<bean id="scheduledTask"
		class="org.springframework.scheduling.timer.ScheduledTimerTask">
		<property name="delay" value="10000" />
		<property name="period" value="50000" />
		<property name="timerTask" ref="sampleTimerJob" />
	</bean>

	<bean id="timerFactory"
		class="org.springframework.scheduling.timer.TimerFactoryBean">
		<property name="scheduledTimerTasks">
			<list>
				<ref bean="scheduledTask" />
			</list>
		</property>
	</bean>

</beans>

add this in <ref bean="simpleTrigger"/>
<bean id="simpleTrigger" class="org.springframework.scheduling.quartz.Simpl eTriggerBean">
<!-- see the example of method invoking job above -->
<property name="jobDetail" ref="exampleJob"/>
<!-- 10 seconds -->
<property name="startDelay" value="10000"/>
<!-- repeat every 50 seconds -->
<property name="repeatInterval" value="50000"/>
</bean>

in configuartion file

What if you change the cron expression to something a bit more frequent for testing purposes

e.g.

0/20 * * * * ?

How are you determining that the job isn't running? Are you sure that the log4j.xml config file in the conf directory is setup to show your log messages?

I don't see when you are telling the scheduler about this job.


this is how i do it..

public class MyServiceImpl
      implements MyService,
       ApplicationContextAware{

    Scheduler scheduler = null;
    ApplicationContext context = null;

    private void initJob()
    {
        long   startTime = System.currentTimeMillis(  ); 

        CronTrigger trigger = ( JobDetail ) context.getBean( "myCronTrigger" );

        try {
            JobDetail job = ( JobDetail ) context.getBean( "myJob" );
            job.setGroup( "Group" );
            job.setName(“myJob”);//dont think u need this..bean id is name..?
            scheduler.scheduleJob( job, trigger );
        }
        catch ( SchedulerException e ){
            logger.error( e );
        }
    }
}
