Error: TypeError: expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not NoneType

Sometimes i get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/homebrew/Cellar/python@3.10/3.10.15/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.10/lib/python3.10/multiprocessing/process.py", line 314, in _bootstrap

TypeError: expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not NoneType

It happen here:

https://github.com/django-q2/django-q2/blob/337a5782d9113a6e9d058743488e7517aebb8280/django_q/cluster.py#L233-L234

When mark_process_dead is called.

Can you help me?

Thanks.

django_q/cluster.py の233～234行目付近から開始し、prometheus_client.multiprocess.mark_process_dead への呼び出しを追跡してください。失敗を再現し、os.path.join に渡されるパスが None である理由を調査してください。原因が確認され、失敗するシナリオの動作が定義・検証されれば完了です。
