Django Celery - Cannot connect to amqp://guest@127.0.0.8000:5672//
The problem is that you are trying to connect to a local instance of RabbitMQ. Look at this line in your settings.py
BROKER_URL = 'amqp://guest:guest@localhost:5672/'
If you are working currently on development, you could avoid setting up Rabbit and all the mess around it, and just use a development version of a message queue with the Django database.
Do this by replacing your previous configuration with:
BROKER_URL = 'django://'
...and add this app:
INSTALLED_APPS += ('kombu.transport.django', )
Finally, launch the worker with:
./manage.py celery worker --loglevel=info
