I have an app deployed on passenger, with a periodic job scheduled  
using rufus scheduler. It ran fine for a couple weeks, then  
apparently just up and quit, with no indication of why. I found a  
couple posts on the rufus mailing list suggesting maybe there were  
issues with this combination (rufus & passenger):

[http://groups.google.com/group/rufus-ruby/browse\_thread/thread/8ca374769edf98b5](http://groups.google.com/group/rufus-ruby/browse_thread/thread/8ca374769edf98b5)

[http://groups.google.com/group/rufus-ruby/browse\_frm/thread/3583f4a29820e673](http://groups.google.com/group/rufus-ruby/browse_frm/thread/3583f4a29820e673)

but nothing seems particularly definitive. Plus, my app ran fine for  
a period of time, so they must not be completely incompatible. That  
said, though, does anyone have anything authoritative to say about the  
long term stability of this combo? Or any other hints for debugging  
the situation? (I can’t seem to get any output from my job in the  
Rails logs, but I don’t know if that’s because the job isn’t running  
or because the logging isn’t working for some reason.)

Thanks,

-kevin
