As i was going through the Celery implementation from the Celery documentation,
celery -A tasks worker --loglevel=INFO
gave output unexpected that from the documentation,
File "d:\101_all_projects\celery-testing\venv\lib\site-packages\celery\platforms.py", line 9, in import grp ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'grp'
Is this because i am on windows?
If you're using the PyPi package django-celery-beat it looks like it installs the most recent version of the required package celery rather than installing a compatible version (by the time I'm posting this, 25th of May 2021 this would be v5.1.0), which seems to have compatibility issues with django-celery-beat version 2.2.0 (the most recent) as well as Windows OS.
I suggest you try
pip uninstall celery
pip install celery==5.0.5
Yes, i agree with you. For me also it happens, exact same issue
when i was working on installations in a command prompt, i was mentioned as (pip install celery), it was installed recent version (5.1.0) or (pip install -r requirements.txt) mentioned in requirements.txt version
pip uninstall celery
pip install celery==5.0.5
It is working
Also, whenever you are working celery make sure youare changes in your requirements.txt as required version as mentione below after run this command (pip install -r requirements.txt)
#We need to mentioned as celery==5.0.5 in our requirement.tx
pip install -r requirements.txt
#it will also working make sure you mentioned the exact version in your reqiuirements.txt
