clearing ListenOnCandlepin Events

ListenOnCandlepin.md

Shut down foreman-tasks:

  service foreman-tasks stop

Open the rails console:

foreman-rake console

and run:

ForemanTasks::Task.where(:label => 'Actions::Candlepin::ListenOnCandlepinEvents').destroy_all
exit

start foreman-tasks:

service foreman-tasks start

I have used this many times, so many thanks for posting this! 😀

Hello,

Thanks for this. Can I suggest a slight modification:

ForemanTasks::Task.where(:state => :paused).where(:label => 'Actions::Candlepin::ListenOnCandlepinEvents').destroy_all

which will prevent destruction of task history.

Thanks for this, use it more then one would like to admit..

Just a little update for RHEL 7 and CENTOS 7, this original poster has done a great job.

RHEL 6 / CENTOS 6:

Shut down foreman-tasks:

service foreman-tasks stop

Open the rails console:
foreman-rake console

and run:

ForemanTasks::Task.where(:label => 'Actions::Candlepin::ListenOnCandlepinEvents').destroy_all
 exit

start foreman-tasks:
` service foreman-tasks start

RHEL 7 / CENTOS 7:

Shut down foreman-tasks:
systemctl stop foreman-tasks

Open the rails console:
foreman-rake console

and run:

ForemanTasks::Task.where(:label => 'Actions::Candlepin::ListenOnCandlepinEvents').destroy_all
 exit

start foreman-tasks:
systemctl start foreman-tasks

For those of us that like a batch mode approach

combining my and @sneckfilter's contribution and some other input

RHEL7/CentOS7

stop foreman tasks:
systemctl stop foreman-tasks

destroy paused tasks:

foreman-rake console <<< 'ForemanTasks::Task.where(:state => :paused).where(:label => 'Actions::Candlepin::ListenOnCandlepinEvents').destroy_all' 

start foreman tasks:
systemctl start foreman-tasks

RHEL6/CentOS6

stop foreman tasks:
service foreman-tasks stop

destroy paused tasks:

foreman-rake console <<< 'ForemanTasks::Task.where(:state => :paused).where(:label => 'Actions::Candlepin::ListenOnCandlepinEvents').destroy_all'

start foreman tasks:
service foreman-tasks stop
