Railo 3.1.2.019 and open tasks

August 18, 2010 · By Sean Corfield · 2 Comments

As part of the latest Railo update, the format of the task object has changed slightly so, if you have any open tasks in your Administrator (under Services > Tasks), it's probably safer to delete those tasks first, before you update. This applies only to tasks, not scheduled tasks. If you update while such tasks exist, you may encounter a null pointer exception when viewing Services > Tasks in the Administrator. To fix that, simply remove the *.tsk files from the WEB-INF/railo/client-tasks folder tree and restart Railo.

Hi Sean

Looks like the getSpoolerTasks function is no longer functional after this upgrade. I can see around 100 tasks through the Web Admin but the code below always returns 0. I am running 3.2.3.000.

<cfadmin action="getSpoolerTasks" type="web" password="#password#" returnVariable="tasks">
<cfdump var="#tasks#">

The code works ok with 3.1.2.001
