Consumer uses 100% CPU when idle about paperless HOT 3 CLOSED

check if you have a document in your consumer folder, that paperless cant consume.

from paperless.

Yup, that seems to have been the case. Looking at the logs, it kept trying to process the same file, and fail:
PARSE FAILURE for /consume/doc.jpg: Language detection failed. Set PAPERLESS_FORGIVING_OCR in config file to continue anyway.

What I'm uncertain about is that, seeing the suggestion in the log message, I set PAPERLESS_FORGIVING_OCR=true in the env_file (docker-compose.yml). It does shows up when I check the env in the consumer container

$ docker-compose run consumer /usr/bin/env                                                                         7s 126 ↵ master

but the consumer continues to choke on it, and suggesting the same fix.

Note that I also have PAPERLESS_DISABLE_LOGIN=true, which also seems to be ignored by the webserver, so maybe I'm not passing the env properly through the docker-compose.env:

$ grep ^PAPERLESS docker-compose.env                                                                                    0s  master
PAPERLESS_DISABLE_LOGIN=true
PAPERLESS_FORGIVING_OCR=true
PAPERLESS_OCR_LANGUAGES=eng fre

Am I setting those properly?

from paperless.

Yeah, there were a few pathological documents. When I got them out of the way, Paperless finished processing everything else, and the consumer went back to 0%.

Still uncertain about how to pass configuration options through the env, but that's a different issue.

Thanks!
