Celery: auto discovery does not find tasks module in app

Question

I have the following setup with a fresh installed celery and django 1.4:

settings.py:

import djcelery
djcelery.setup_loader()

BROKER_HOST = \'localhost         


        

Answer 1

In my case, I couldn't figure out the problem until I tried to import the tasks in shell (python or python manage.py shell).

>>> from project_name.tasks import task_add
