Tasks failing with "undefined method `params' for #<Account:0x007ffa6e6f6718>"

[wazoo]

When I try to run a task (in this case via Account.index) every single task fails with this, I have no idea why it is loading the controllers in my app to do this. The methods sort_column, fetch_people, and people that it is trying to run are all involved in fetching json for something else, is it trying to read json from the index action or something?

I have looked for everything that I could possibly think of to figure this error out but I cant find anything.

@wazoo based on the stack trace I don't think this is an issue with sunspot-queue, I would take a look at app/models/account.rb line 66 as that's the first of your code that is being executed.

You might be able to debug with something like this from rails console:

include Sunspot::Queue::Helper

without_proxy do
  Account.find([id]).index
end

Thats what I thought, but I wanted to start here since I can index successfully with foreground indexing.

I tried to include that module and I get initialized constant?

gem list | grep sunspot
sunspot (1.3.3)
sunspot-queue (0.10.0)
sunspot_rails (1.3.3)
sunspot_solr (1.3.3)

gem list | grep resque 
resque (1.23.0)
resque-loner (1.2.1)

rails (3.2.12)

ruby-1.9.3-p362

The line in that file is:

text :contracts do
    contracts.map {|c| c.contractnumber}
end

That is a relationship as defined in account.rb:

has_many :business_units
has_many :contracts,    through: :business_units

Thoughts? Again, thanks for the help, I have been pulling my hair out.

Okay, just for your future debugging, I figured it out, solution here:

Glad you figured it out. :metal:
