Queues

Monitor job queues, inspect failed jobs, and trigger maintenance tasks like SQLite exports and reindexing.

Go to Dashboard → Queues to see the state of every background job queue. This page helps you diagnose stuck jobs, investigate failures, and run maintenance operations.


Queue types

Four process queues are monitored:

QueuePurpose
IngestParses release titles from raw torrents and indexes them in Meilisearch.
EnrichFetches metadata from TMDB and AniList, downloads poster/backdrop images.
HousekeeperRuns scheduled maintenance — asset cleanup, metadata refresh, reindexing, SQLite exports.
AI RepairSends low-confidence release data to an LLM for re-interpretation.

Two additional queues (Scraper Control, Notifications) run behind the scenes but are not shown in the monitoring UI.


Monitoring

Each queue tab shows counts for:

StatusMeaning
WaitingJobs queued but not yet started.
ActiveJobs currently being processed.
CompletedSuccessfully finished jobs.
FailedJobs that exhausted all retry attempts.
DelayedJobs scheduled to run later.
PausedQueue is paused — no new jobs are picked up.

Counts refresh every 2 seconds. Failed job counts are highlighted with a red badge on each queue tab.


Inspecting jobs

Click any queue tab and select a status filter (Waiting, Failed, Active, Delayed) to browse individual jobs. Click a job row to open a detail panel showing:

  • Timestamps — when the job was added, picked up, and finished (or failed)
  • Attempts — how many times the job was tried
  • Failure reason — the error message, highlighted in red
  • Stack trace — full stack trace in a code block for debugging
  • Payload — the job's JSON data, pretty-printed

Failed jobs persist in the queue for inspection. Successful jobs are automatically removed after completing.


Triggering maintenance

From the Housekeeper queue tab, you can manually trigger two operations:

SQLite export

Dumps the entire torrents table into a portable SQLite file. Click Export SQLite — if no export is already running, a job is queued. Once completed, you can download the file.

Only one export can be active at a time. Attempting to trigger another while one is queued or running returns a conflict error.

Force reindex

Wipes the Meilisearch index and rebuilds it from PostgreSQL. Use this if search results are stale or the index is corrupted.

Reindexing is also triggered automatically when the search schema version changes (detected at server startup).
