I'm trying start resque-web, but this error occurs:

[Sun Mar 06 05:27:48 +0000 2011] Starting 'resque-web'...
[Sun Mar 06 05:27:48 +0000 2011] trying port 8281...
Couldn't get a file descriptor referring to the console

This error occurred with Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10.

Resque Web only starts with -F option (don't daemonize, run in the foreground). So, it must be something when the process is daemonized.

Any idea, how can I solve it?

Regards,

It's probably trying to open the default browser and failing to do so. Try using:

$ resque-web -L

To avoid starting a browser.
