Not working with both ruby 1.9.2 and ruby 1.8.7

Getting the following stacktrace:

gem 'delayed_job', :git => 'git://github.com/collectiveidea/delayed_job.git'

With a bit of work, I'm able to get all of the pieces functioning except for the workers. (Jobs get saved to the table correctly without too much finagling.)

"rake jobs:work" will execute, but it doesn't actually find any of the jobs that have been stored in the jobs table. "script/delayed_job start" seems to behave the same way. Looking through the code, I really couldn't tell you _why_ it isn't working (it doesn't make much sense that the piece that is supposed to operate separately from Rails is the part that's broken), but it's not.

(For reference, I'm running Rails 3.0.0.beta.)

OK, I got it working as a gem (previously, I was trying to run it as a plugin -- perhaps foolishly). Sincere apologies for any confusion I've caused.

One (unrelated) thing that tripped me up but was easy to overcome:

All the documentation and capistrano recipes I've seen say to run "RAILS_ENV=production script/delayed_job start" to start the worker, but I was getting permission errors when I ran it that way on both my development and production machines. I got it running by inserting ruby into that command (i.e., "RAILS_ENV=production ruby script/delayed_job start").

It was a pretty obvious thing to try, so it wasn't hard, but I thought I'd mention it in case anybody else has the same problem. Sorry again for claiming it doesn't work (above) when, as a gem, it seems to work fine.

with warning though:

DEPRECATION WARNING: Base#before_save has been deprecated, please use Base.before_save :method instead. (called from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/delayed_job-1.8.4/lib/delayed/job.rb:255)

How do you get the generation for Rails3?

After installing the gem, I cannot find the generator.
