Since upgrading to sidekiq-unique-jobs 4.0.4 I'm getting this exception:

Any ideas?

Check the readme for how unique is configured now. Can't just use unique: true anymore but have to specify the lock type. Could it be an old job maybe? I might have missed that, will look into it later today.

I mean like unique: :until_executing

[tetherit]

Ah, ok, but from the changelog keeping "true" should throw a warning rather than an exception?

[mhenrixon]

That was the idea but something went wrong in your case. I'll investigate why tonight.
