<h1 dir="auto">Expected Behavior</h1>

<p dir="auto">We upgraded from celery version 4.4.6 to 4.4.7, everything was working fine on 4.4.6.</p>
<h1 dir="auto">Actual Behavior</h1>

<p dir="auto">After upgrading, we failed to start the worker service because "--app" parameter is not loaded from "ExecStart" command. Beat service works well with "--app" though. We downgraded back to 4.4.6 and it works fine again.</p>
<p dir="auto">The basic tutorial setup outlined here: <a href="https://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/django/first-steps-with-django.html" rel="nofollow">https://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/django/first-steps-with-django.html</a> now fails to locate set the <code class="notranslate">broker</code> or <code class="notranslate">CELERY_BROKER_URL</code> parameter. Celery just ignores the settings and defaults to searching for a host at <code class="notranslate">amqp://guest:**@127.0.0.1:5672//:</code>, which is not my host of choice.</p>
<p dir="auto">I'm ignoring the issues template because this is a very basic regression that the last committor can fix quickly.</p>
