[web2py] Error using Scheduler with CouchDB

[Ted]

Hi Web2pyers,

Has anyone sucessfully used the new scheduler functionality with *CouchDB? 
*(I'm 
assuming this is feasible)

I'm currently trying to use the scheduler on *Windows 7* with *CouchDB *as 
the DAL source.
My code works fine with sqlite but seems to silently fail using *CouchDB*- 
although the tables are correctly created.

e.g.

scheduler_db = DAL('couchdb://127.0.0.1:5984')
scheduler = 
Scheduler(scheduler_db,dict(demo1=demo1,demo2=demo2),heartbeat=1) 


(The *CouchDB* scheduler_worker table seems to mysteriously keep growing.)

When I try to manually add a task through the Admin (
http://127.0.0.1:8000/init/appadmin/insert/scheduler_db/scheduler_task)

I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    return repr(not isinstance(value,unicode) and value or value.encode('utf8'))
AttributeError: 'long' object has no attribute 'encode'

Any suggestions on what is going wrong?

Thanks,
Ted
