Hi, This is a question that has been asked several times in the list, and I have also had to implement this kind of app in the past. Now I'm also facing to another application where I need to run a resource_and_time_consuming process managed from web2py.
The exact problem is: - From a web page, a long process must be started - The web page must be updated as the process is being done - The web page must be able to cancel the process. In the past I have had to deal with the fact of sessions lockings: web2py server doesn't react while the process is being executed. I've solved this by using session.forget(response), but this solution avoids the use of session variables to update the process in the original web page. I've used background processes, queues, etc, These solutions work when time is not an issue, but not when the synchronization between the process and the webpage must be fast and accurate I wonder if someone has a definitive pattern to do this kind of action.
