Celery daemon as a Ubuntu service does not consume tasks while running from terminal does
- by Guy
On Ubuntu 11.10,
I have to issue python tasks from django using celery.
I'm currently testing on the same machine but eventually the celery worker should run on a remote machine.
django uses the following settings:
BROKER_HOST = "127.0.0.1"
BROKER_PORT = 5672
BROKER_VHOST = "/my_vhost"
BROKER_USER = "celery"
BROKER_PASSWORD = "celery"
I can also see my task queued in
http://localhost:55672/#/queues
the celery daemon uses the following configuration (celeryconfig.py):
BROKER_HOST = "127.0.0.1"
BROKER_PORT = 5672
BROKER_USER = "celery"
BROKER_PASSWORD = "celery"
BROKER_VHOST = "/my_vhost"
CELERY_RESULT_BACKEND = "amqp"
import os
import sys
sys.path.append(os.getcwd())
CELERY_IMPORTS = ("tasks", )
running
celeryd -l info
works well and now I want to run it as a service.
I've followed the instructions from
http://ask.github.com/celery/cookbook/daemonizing.html
and now I'm trying to run it using:
sudo /etc/init.d/celeryd start
But the message is not being consumed, no error in the celery log either.
/etc/default/celeryd
CELERYD_NODES="w1"
CELERYD_CHDIR="/path/to/django/project"
CELERYD_OPTS="--time-limit=300 --concurrency=1"
CELERY_CONFIG_MODULE="celeryconfig"
# %n will be replaced with the nodename.
CELERYD_LOG_FILE="/var/log/celery/%n.log"
CELERYD_PID_FILE="/var/run/celery/%n.pid"
# Workers should run as an unprivileged user.
CELERYD_USER="celery"
CELERYD_GROUP="celery"
I've also created user celery in Ubuntu not sure if its necessary.
Any help will be appreciated,
Thanks,
Guy
