Re: TypeError: main_task() got multiple values for argument 'medium_size'

Sending again to the list:

If after a while means when you restart the celery process then it may be the same bug: https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/5608

In my case I don't see any transcoding issues. Actually videos survive a reboot but images get marked as failed.

Someone suggested a workaround for the bug in the ticket.

Hi all,

Since upgrading to 0.10.0, it seems all my media gets marked as failed
to upload... But only after a while. It processes, gets a thumbnail and
shows properly on the main page. Then it disappears, and gets added to
the failed upload.

I'm seeing this message from the separate celery process when trying to
manually re-transcode the videos.

Note that just changing the status in the DB from failed to processed
just fixes the issue. This also affects images (though not sure the
transcoding warning above would occur).

Does that sound familiar to someone? Is there a known fix? I suspect it
might be the config, but I don't recall setting a 'medium_size'
anywhere.
