[BUG] use celery task send data to pulsar, init pulsar client error

I'm new to celery. Could you explain how to run the script you provided?

[dengshaochun]

It cannot be fully reproduced, but the online environment has always been problematic. The test of a separate celery + pulsar code is normal. At present, there is no idea. The online environment reports the following errors:

 p._producer = self._client.create_producer(topic, conf)
_pulsar.TopicNotFound: Pulsar error: TopicNotFound
0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 WARN  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 ERROR [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 WARN  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 ERROR [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 WARN  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 ERROR [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 ERROR [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [0000-00-00 00:00:00.000 INFO  [

The online environment only has problems when calling celery.delay, and there will be no exception when calling the function directly，as follows

# ok
mock_data2pulsar(cnt=1000)

# exception
mock_data2pulsar.delay(cnt=1000)

debug pulsar/__init__.py print topic and conf before p._producer = self._client.create_producer(topic, conf) looks ok

Hi @dengshaochun. I tried to reproduce the bug but the code works. There are suspicions that the problem is in the name of topic.

Here my example: https://github.com/gromsterus/issues-sandbox/tree/main/pulsar-client-python-150
I use persistent://public/default/test-celery.

If you provide the complete code with celery initialization it will be easier to help 🤝
