whenever gem implementation

example.rb

Following the instructions from @lol007 http://stackoverflow.com/a/18864911/556548 i make the next example:

I haved a CRUD with info called Post with title:string, content:text and status:boolean with Ruby 1.8.7 and Rails 3.2.11 in development environment.

I'm add whenever gem to my gemfile and run the bundle install command. Then i run the command whenever . in the console.

This generate the config/schedule.rb when i add the next code:

# schedule.rb
every 5.minutes do
  runner "Post.check_updated_at"
end

Then in my models/post.rb

# post.rb
def self.check_updated_at
  where('updated_at > ?', 30.minutes.ago).update_all({ :status => :true })
end

I run the command rails s in the console. and wait 5 minutes to see if something happend but not, still the status like i created and updated.
