ValueError: not enough values to unpack (expected 2, got 1)

[Stephane-Ag]

I keep getting this error when trying to view active jobs when there's at least 1 active job.

It's being caused by this function:

def get_executions(queue, composite_keys: List[str]) -> List[Execution]:
    """Fetch executions in bulk from Redis.
    1. If execution data is not present in Redis, discard the result
    """
    executions = []
    for key in composite_keys:
        job_id, id = key.split(':')
        try:
            executions.append(Execution.fetch(id=id, job_id=job_id, connection=queue.connection))
        except ValueError:
            pass
    return executions

Why is a colon expected to be in the job_id?

I tried adding one to bypass this error but rq explicitly doesn't allow this either and errors out with: ValueError: id must not contain ":"

get_executions seems to have been added in django-rq v3.0 for rq v2.0 but rq v2.0.1 added the no-colon requirement.

How can I solve this?

It looks like rq changed how the job_ids are parsed for the StartedJobRegistry in v2.2.
Downgrading rq to v2.1.0 currently fixes this issue for me.
