Supervisord as Windows Service on Cygwin - windows-services

Question

I am attempting to run Celery as a Windows Service using Supervisord. I followed the configuration laid out on the Celery site and [here][1]. I have set up a virtual environment to run supervisord through cygwin.I have highlighted the lines I think are most important (with **). It appears supervisord and rabbitMQ are working. The problem is with Celery.
I setup the service with the commands:
$ cygrunsrv --install supervisord --path /usr/bin/python --args "/usr/bin/supervisord -n -c /usr/etc/supervisord.conf"
$ supervisord
UPDATED: I now have the following in my supervisord.log file:
2014-08-07 12:46:40,676 INFO exited: celery (exit status 1; not expected)

C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\celery\apps\worker.py:161: CDeprecationWarning:
Starting from version 3.2 Celery will refuse to accept pickle by default.
The pickle serializer is a security concern as it may give attackers
the ability to execute any command. It's important to secure
your broker from unauthorized access when using pickle, so we think
that enabling pickle should require a deliberate action and not be
the default choice.
If you depend on pickle then you should set a setting to disable this
warning and to be sure that everything will continue working
when you upgrade to Celery 3.2::
CELERY_ACCEPT_CONTENT = ['pickle', 'json', 'msgpack', 'yaml']
You must only enable the serializers that you will actually use.

Answer 1

I solved my issue using the following command: /home/HBA/venv/Scripts/celery worker -A runLogProject --loglevel=INFO
My biggest issue was an unfamiliarity with virtual environments. I needed to make sure the files were in the correct folders within the venv.
