Laravel http request: Cannot run multiple request

Question

I got terrible problem with Laravel http request. Please help me to solve this:

I assumed that I have 2 requests that route to same Controller:

Req 1: http://localhost:8000/manualScheduler/runScript?task_name=Task (This request takes much time to run around 2mins)
Req 2:http://localhost:8000/manualScheduler/detail?task_name=Task ( this one is very quick)

When I fired Req 1 then next is Req 2. I just think that 2 Reqs are separately, means Req 1 and Req 2 run in their own way. But the result I got was Req 2 could not finish when Req 1 was running.

In controller,

Req 1: I want to run script to parse HTML file with yangqi/htmldom
Req 2: I want to return some simple value.

Edited: My question is why my Req 2 has to wait Req 1 finish first? They should not depend on each other, i think? Or some problem with Laravel.

Thanks for your support,

Can you edit your text so it has clear question in it that we can answer? Right now I am not entirely sure what you want to accomplish. — Margus Pala

Looks like you are using default local synchronous queue driver. To get parallel processing capability you need to use some other driver. I recommend iron.io

More info from http://laravel.com/docs/5.0/queues#configuration

You mean laravel server in local cannot handle parallel processing? How about server in host, ex: byethost,etc..? Do we need to configure anything?

Margus Pala Over a year ago

It depends on your config. Sync driver means that tasks are processed in sequence. Other drivers support also parallel processing. The link I gave you explains how to use different queue drivers that you can configure in your config/queue.php

1 more question, how can I execute function by Req 1 in background (thread)? Can you give me some hint?

Margus Pala Over a year ago

I recommend to use iron queue driver iron.io/mq for parallel processing. I have been using it and it works like a charm. However in localhost you need to create publicly accessible tunnel so that calls made from iron.io servers reach your application. You can also try database driver.

Thanks all. But I still have some confusion. Before that, I just think that in default server will handle requests parallel, separately, not single thread like this, I think every incoming request will work in their thread only? Am I correct?
