Celery Received unregistered task of type (run example)

Question

I\'m trying to run example from Celery documentation.

I run: celeryd --loglevel=INFO

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/celery/loade         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem: The reason of "Received unregistered task of type.." was that celeryd service didn't find and register the tasks on service start (btw their list is visible when you start ./manage.py celeryd --loglevel=info ).

These tasks should be declared in CELERY_IMPORTS = ("tasks", ) in settings file.
If you have a special celery_settings.py file it has to be declared on celeryd service start as --settings=celery_settings.py as digivampire wrote.
