This is my first time using the 'whenever' gem in rails, and I cannot get it to work. I followed the documentation and added this to my GEMFILE:

gem 'whenever', :require => false

Then I ran bundle install and typed wheneverize and edited config/schedule.rb which includes the following lines:

env :PATH, ENV['PATH']
# siteA.rake and siteB.rake are in in /lib/tasks/
every :reboot do
    rake "scrape_data:siteA" , :environment => :development
    rake "scrape_data:siteB" , :environment => :development
end

Then I typed in whenever --update-crontab myAppName which gave the output [write] crontab file updated. Now when I run my rails server, both these custom rake tasks don't run.
