Django, ImportError: cannot import name Celery, possible circular import?

Question

I went through this example here:

http://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/django/first-steps-with-django.html

All my tasks are in files called tasks.py.

Answer 1

I got the same error.

Seems that from __future__ import absolute_import DOES NOT work for Python 2.6.1, still not raising an error.

Upgraded to Python 2.7.5 and it just worked.
