What is your version of django and askbot. I think I've fixed this error recently, but will take a look again.

It may be a problem with Celery actually.

Try removing django-celery from your system, including anything in the /build directory within your python path, then install it again.

pip install django-celery==2.2.7

There were a few updates of the celery library recently in just a few past days. Something may not be right there.

pip uninstall django-celery might just work, but I notice that sometimes pip will take a cached version from the build directory (I have this issue on my mac) then I cannot easily downgrade libraries.

I.e. -try a specific version of celery.

Evgeny (13 years ago)

thanks Evgeny, pip install -E site django-celery==2.2.7 did the job.

Great, the dependencies should actually satisfy automatically, if you use "official" methods of installation, described in the manual. If you have issues with those - we will improve the startup tests so that future installations are easier.

there is no issues with the "official" methods.
