Updating service celery-beat 

When looking up what celery-beat is, it seems so be some sort of scheduler galaxy uses. I didn't find any similar problems online. Could anyone advice what's going on? Thanks!

Please ask over at the Galaxy help forum for specific help: https://help.galaxyproject.org

If you are trying to do this on windows then it appears that celery beat may not support windows.

Thanks, I'll go over there! And its on an Ubuntu Server

for the record, Celery is a task queue system, and the beat runs periodic commands, it is like cron in unix

I know this because we use it too with Biostar, but it is not a bioinformatics related question and as GenoMax mentions the Galaxy forum is the place to get more information
