PHP-Resque won't run perform()

Question

I am using PHP-Resque and can't get the perform() method to work. Can anyone tell what I'm missing?

This is my setup:

• I have 3 terminals open running the following:
• $ php workers.php
• $ redis-cli monitor

• $ php create.php (To create a job)

• workers.php

  <?php
  
  putenv("VVERBOSE=1");
  putenv("LOGGING=1");
  putenv("QUEUE=* php bin/resque"); 
  require_once APPPATH . '../vendor/chrisboulton/php-resque/bin/resque';
  

• create.php

  <?php
  
  $jobId = Resque::enqueue('JESSE', 'Dog', ['hey'], true);
  echo "JobId: $jobId\n";
  
  $status = new Resque_Job_Status($jobId);
  if ($status->isTracking()) {
      echo "\nStatus: " . $status->get();
  }
  

I always get a JobId and Status of 1. eg:

JobId: 757335754aec172166e8679cc3bfef58
Status: 1

I always get a Redis log that its been inserted. eg:

[2 127.0.0.1:38912] "sadd" "resque:queues" "JESSE"
[2 127.0.0.1:38912] "rpush" "resque:queue:JESSE" "{\"class\":\"Dog\",\"args\":[[\"hey\"]],\"id\":\"757335754aec172166e8679cc3bfef58\"}"
[2 127.0.0.1:38912] "set" "resque:job:757335754aec172166e8679cc3bfef58:status" "{\"status\":1,\"updated\":1398269884,\"started\":1398269884}"
[2 127.0.0.1:38912] "exists" "resque:job:757335754aec172166e8679cc3bfef58:status"

Yet it doesn't seem to be running the perform() method at all:

class Dog {
    public function perform()
    {
        echo 'TEST TEST TEST TEST';

        fwrite('/tmp/resque-output.txt', 'This is running', w);
        fwrite(STDOUT, 'Start job! -> ');
        sleep(1);
        fwrite(STDOUT, 'Job ended!' . PHP_EOL);
    }
}

Pretty sure it's this:

putenv("QUEUE=* php bin/resque"); 

That should just be:

putenv("QUEUE=*"); 

The second part is the command to start resque, which you're doing differently. As it stands, it's looking for a queue * php bin/resque instead of all queues (*).
