Hi Angela, Just to be clear the command should be run from the directory where the "manage.py" file is located. EG: you CAN'T do this --> python somedir/manage.py celery start
Also, does your celery file look something like this? from __future__ import absolute_import, unicode_literals import os from celery import Celery os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', '{project_name}.settings') app = Celery('{project_name}') app.config_from_object('django.conf:settings', namespace='CELERY') app.autodiscover_tasks() where {project_name} is the name of the directory where your project exists Cheers, Alexei Director of Web Development - Farallon Geographics, Inc. - 971.227.3173 On Wed, Jan 27, 2021 at 7:31 AM Angela Labrador <ala...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Alexei, > > Correct.
