Here’s my tiny script to run celeryd: #!/bin/bash -x LOG=/home/var/log/ingest.log sudo -u apache bash

Here’s my tiny script to run celeryd:

#!/bin/bash -x
LOG=/home/var/log/ingest.log
sudo -u apache bash -c "nohup `pwd`/bin/django celeryd --purge --beat --loglevel=INFO >> $LOG &"

I run the script as a normal user, and enter the root password when requested.

I’d really like to see no output at all – everything sent to the log. Instead I’m seeing everything doubled:

This output is all coming from “the background”, which means it spews all over my terminal when I’m doing other stuff.

I’m not really sure if my mistake is in my understanding of bash, celeryd, nohup, …?

    You can tell celeryd to log to a file with the option -f.

    You will still get some output. celeryd seems to ignore any attempts to redirect with output 2>&1 > /your/file/.

    P.S: I would suggest looking into something like Supervisor to manage your processes.
