AttributeError when I'm running Celery worker

I'm trying to use celery for background process in my Django application. Django version is 1.4.8 and latest suitable celery version is 3.1.25.

I use Redis (3.1.0) as broker and backend, json as serializer.

When I start the worker celery -A celery_app worker -l info I'm getting Attribute error 'unicode' object has no attribute 'iteritems'

My settings.py file:

BROKER_URL = 'redis://localhost'
CELERY_RESULT_BACKEND = 'redis://localhost/'
CELERY_ACCEPT_CONTENT = ['json']
CELERY_TASK_SERIALIZER = 'json'
CELERY_RESULT_SERIALIZER = 'json'
CELERY_STORE_ERRORS_EVEN_IF_IGNORED = True

celery_app.py:

import sys
from django.conf import settings
from celery import Celery

project_root = os.path.dirname(__file__)
sys.path.insert(0, os.path.join(project_root, '../env'))
sys.path.insert(0, os.path.join(project_root, '../'))
os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'project.settings')
app = Celery('project')
app.config_from_object('project.settings')
app.autodiscover_tasks(lambda: settings.INSTALLED_APPS, force=True)

tasks.py:

@celery_app.task
def sample_task(x):
    return 'Test response'

and that's how I run this task:

sample_task.delay({'key': 'test'})

And I get the following error:

File "/Users/user/project/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/redis/_compat.py", line 94, in iteritems
    return x.iteritems()
AttributeError: 'unicode' object has no attribute 'iteritems'

I tried to find the issue on the internet, tried to pass another params to task. I don't know how to debug celery process and could not find the solution by myself. Please help me

Seems that this Celery version doesn't support Redis 3. Try to install Redis 2.10.6.
