not compatible with celery about oct2py HOT 7 CLOSED

Can you describe your set up a little more (OS, python environment, oct2py version)?
Are you creating a new Oct2Py object for each async task?

from oct2py.

OS: Debian 3.2.60-1+deb7u3
Python: Python 2.7.3
oct2py: Version: 2.4.0
celery: Version: 3.1.16

It hangs upon the first oct2py call, which is to set the path or any other call even on the first async task:

from oct2py import octave
octave.addpath(_OCTAVE_LIB_PATH)

from oct2py.

Hmm, are you able to post a relevant section of your code? I'm not familiar with celery or redis.

from oct2py.

I followed this tutorial, which is pretty good and you can just add the octave code in my prior post to the example:

from oct2py.

Yikes, I'm having trouble grokking celery. Would you mind changing your snippet to the one below and trying again? octave is an instance of the Oct2Py class, representing one Octave session, that cannot be shared over multiple tasks (or threads).

from oct2py import Oct2Py
oct = Oct2Py()
oct.addpath(_OCTAVE_LIB_PATH)

from oct2py.

Awesome, that fixed it. Thanks!

Cheers, thanks for using oct2py!
