It seems that when an exception is raised from a multiprocessing.Pool process, there is no stack trace or any other indication that it has failed. Example:

Since you have used apply_sync, I guess the use case is want to do some synchronize tasks. Use callback for handling is another option. Please note this option is available only for python3.2 and above and not available on python2.7.

from multiprocessing import Pool

def callback(result):
    print('success', result)

def callback_error(result):
    print('error', result)

def go():
    print(1)
    raise Exception()
    print(2)

p = Pool()
p.apply_async(go, callback=callback, error_callback=callback_error)

# You can do another things

p.close()
p.join()
