I'm using Django 1.6 and Django-ImageKit 3.2.1.
I'm trying to generate images asynchronously with ImageKit. Async image generation works locally but not on the production server.
I'm using Celery and I've tried both:
IMAGEKIT_DEFAULT_CACHEFILE_BACKEND = 'imagekit.cachefiles.backends.Async'
IMAGEKIT_DEFAULT_CACHEFILE_BACKEND = 'imagekit.cachefiles.backends.Celery'
Using the Simple
backend (synchronous) instead of Async
or Celery
works fine on the production server. So I don't understand why the asynchronous backend gives me the following ImportError (pulled from the Celery log):
[2014-04-05 21:51:26,325: CRITICAL/MainProcess] Can't decode message body: DecodeError(ImportError('No module named s3utils',),) [type:u'application/x-python-serialize' encoding:u'binary' headers:{}]

DecodeError: No module named s3utils
s3utils is what defines my AWS S3 bucket paths. I'll post it if need be, but the strange thing I think is that the synchronous backend has no problem importing s3utils while the asynchronous does... and asynchronous does ONLY on the production server, not locally.
I'd be SO greatful for any help debugging this. I've been wrestling this for days. I'm still learning Django and python so I'm hoping this is a stupid mistake on my part. My Google-fu has failed me.
