Django Apps aren't loaded yet Celery Tasks

Question

What is giving the error below? I'm unsure if this is a problem with an app I have installed or one of mine. The exception below is generated only when running Celery i.e. celery -A demo.apps.wall.tasks worker , runserver does not generate any errors. Which app ios the issue?

Running manage.py check is ok.

Try adding this to the beginning of tasks.py:

import django
django.setup()
