Description

I have seen this error already multiple times on Travis:

    line 442 (#1)
    (F) You used the syntax of a method call, but the slot filled by the
    object reference or package name contains an undefined value.  Something
    like this will reproduce the error:

        $BADREF = undef;
        process $BADREF 1,2,3;
        $BADREF->process(1,2,3);

Uncaught exception from user code:

The dequeue call in the line 442 returns undef if there's no worker ID or $minion->backend->dequeue returns undef:

sub dequeue {
  my ($self, $wait, $options) = @_;

  # Worker not registered
  return undef unless my $id = $self->id;

  my $minion = $self->minion;
  return undef unless my $job = $minion->backend->dequeue($id, $wait, $options);
  $job = Minion::Job->new(
    args    => $job->{args},
    id      => $job->{id},
    minion  => $minion,
    retries => $job->{retries},
    task    => $job->{task}
  );
  $self->emit(dequeue => $job);
  return $job;
}

After merging the PR, it looks like this:

    #   Failed test 'job enqueued'
    #   at ./t/25-cache-service.t line 442.
    # Looks like you failed 1 test of 2.
#   Failed test 'Test Minion task registration and execution'
#   at ./t/25-cache-service.t line 448.
Can't call method "execute" on an undefined value at ./t/25-cache-service.t line 443.

So the worker ID is set. Hence it must be either $minion->backend->dequeue(...) or Minion::Job->new(...) which returns undef.

The call to Minion::Job->new(...) can't return undef.

Which only leaves one path to follow :-)

  • Priority changed from Normal to Low

I haven't seen this failure for quite a while now. In fact not once since I've added the extra checks for debugging.

  • Status changed from In Progress to Resolved

Since it is not happening anymore (at least I'm not aware) I mark this as resolved.
