#celery

asksol: any idea how I would gain access to the meta column for the current task, so I can store arbitrary information in it?

I want to use gevent for my celery workers, because I'm mostly doing HTTP requests. I used -P gevent, and set concurrency to 100, but it seems like celery is still blocking on IO.

mw44118: Noticed the same issue with eventlet workers, couldn't figure it out.

anyone solved "celery workers dont die when they're supposed to"

or "python path isnt working correctly in this billiard stuff"

or "none of the concurrency models really work in celery" :)

ah updating celery fixes the billiard bug

heh, apparently not a completely bad practice in django-celery to use commit_on_success for the tasks

helps not keep transactions open longer than necessary

Hello. I'm seeing exit codes like this with Celery 3.0.15. Can anybody shed some light on the 155 code?

ERROR/MainProcess] Process 'PoolWorker-8' pid:6532 exited with exitcode -155

hello, my worker doesn't update heartbeat since friday… what could be possible causes for this? I have celerycam, celerybeat and celeryd running...

I need to edit an image, and it need to be immediately avaiable after save. I think celery can make the request cicle smaller, but how to deal with inconsistency of maybe not having the processed picture when user access it

when I run python manage.py celery active it's just waiting wating and I can't see any return… what could be causing this? (I'm using djcelery)

Hi, I'm having some problems after upgrading from mysql to postgresql.

Basically, when I do things like this:

1) get an object

2) set some data

3) save

4) start a task

5) the task sets more data

6) the task saves the object

... I get with two copies of the object in my database.

I think the reason is that instead of passing the object's id to my task, I'm passing the actual object.

Can anybody confirm that it's an issue?

siovene: I can't confirm it for sure, but the best practice (and I think it's documented as such), is to only pass the id. It wouldn't surprise me if that's why you're having that problem.

siovene: this is where I saw it: http://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/usergui... (3rd paragraph)

nkryptic: thanks, it makes sense.
