Fokko,
Thanks. This issue you describe appears to be spot on to the issues we are seeing. Will stick with Celery 4.0, and keep monitoring manually for failures. - John K ________________________________ From: fo...@driesprongen.nl <fo...@driesprongen.nl> on behalf of Driesprong, Fokko <fo...@driesprong.frl> Sent: Wednesday, March 7, 2018 9:39 AM To: dev@airflow.incubator.apache.org Subject: Re: Airflow looses track of Dag Tasks Notice: This message originated outside of SRC. Hi John, There are some issues with Celery 4.1: https://github.com/ apache/incubator-airflow/pull/2806 Therefore we are still at 4.0. The release cycle of Celery seems to be a bit stuck: https://github.com/celery/celery/issues/4387 The only thing that I've experienced is that the task is begin scheduled with Celery, but the feedback wasn't properly stored. This will be pushed back to Postgres, but this wasn't working properly due config mismatches. This caused Airflow to kick off the job, and dispatch it to Celery, but the result of the job would never come back. Therefore it would exhaust the number of slots quickly. All the Celery setups that I'm running are on 4.0 and appear to be running smoothly.
