Enqueued job is not being processed with MSMQ or RabbitMQ

[odinserj]

From forum topic, please see http://discuss.hangfire.io/t/jobs-being-created-in-database-stuck-as-enqueued/583 for the details.

While performing a simple Enqueue such as:
BackgroundJob.Enqueue(() => Console.WriteLine("Test!"));
Hangfire will only attempt to process the job around 60% of the time. Further research shows that the job is being successfully inserted into the HangFire.Job table, but it is never processed.

The problem was related to a very quick worker that picked up a background job that was not fully initialized for the enqueued state. I've fixed it by waiting for a full initialization (with timeout) before trying to change the state to Processing. If timeout expires (or when process is killed), the job simply moves back to the queue.
