Demo

This demonstrates an issue that manifests with a Celery Task that has been wrapped by both the Sentry SDK and New Relic.

Exception Type: AttributeError at /debug-task
Exception Value: 'method-wrapper' object has no attribute '__module__'

This error only appears when the New Relic library uses the wrappers C extension instead of the pure python version.

Setup

Using Docker is the fastest way to see the issue.

1. Clone the repo
2. Run

   docker-compose up web
   

3. Visit http://0.0.0.0:8080/debug-task

You should then see the following

Environment:

Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://0.0.0.0:8080/debug-task

Notes

• The Docker build sets the environment variable NEW_RELIC_EXTENSIONS=true to ensure the C extension is compiled and used.
• It isn't important to run a Celery broker as the problem only manifests when calling task.apply().
• Database migrations aren't needed either. Django is here mostly because this more closely simulates how we're using Celery.
