Troubleshooting

If things are not acting like you think they should, there are two log files you can look at.

Log Files

log/celeryWorker.log is the Celery debug log. I print things to this log that will help you understand what is going on. Also, this is where I look for any python syntax issues that occur in asynchronous jobs. If you see any uncaught exceptions in here, please let me know!

log/cmdExecutionAutdit.log is a tab delimited log file that records the following columns for each executed command: Start Time, End Time, Duration, Command Name, Command

celerystalk Database Commands

The following commands will show you what is in the celerystalk database:

./celerystalk db hosts
./celerystalk db services
./celerystalk db paths

Using SQLiteBrowser

If you want to access the database itself, try using sqlitebrowser:

# sqlitebrowser csdb.sqlite3 &

Need to start over/Reset?

The reset script in the setup directory will:

• Remove all .pyc files
• Wipe the celerystalk database
• Remove any jobs still in the Redis queue
• Restart celery.

# cd setup
# ./reset.sh
# cd ..
# ./celerystalk ...
