NAME

Helios::Error::Fatal - fatal exception class for Helios indicating a job failed but can be re-attempted

SYNOPSIS

# in dodgy code:

use Error qw(:try);

sub dodgy {

	if ($something_bad) {
		throw Helios::Error::Fatal("This job failed");
	}
}


# in the caller of the dodgy code:

use Error qw(:try);

try {
	dodgy(@params);
} catch Helios::Error::Fatal with {
	my $e = shift;
	$self->logMsg( $e->text() );
	$self->failedJob( $job, $e->text() );
};

DESCRIPTION

Helios::Error::Fatal can be used to identify errors that were severe enough to cause a job to fail. This implies an error that should be logged and the Schwartz job in question should be marked as failed (with the $job->failed() method). If your Worker class supports retrying failed jobs (overriding the max_retries() method), the system will retry the job up to the number times returned by max_retries().

Compare this to Helios::Error::FatalNoRetry, which implies a similar circumstance except the error is severe enough to prevent the system from re-attempting the job later.
