I've installed Celery and I'm trying to test it with the [Celery First Steps Doc](http://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/getting-started/first-steps-with-celery.html).

I tried using both Redis and RabbitMQ as brokers and backends, but I can't get the result with : 

```
result.get(timeout = 10)

```

Each time, I get this error :

```
  Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 11, in <module>
  File "/home/mehdi/.virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.4/site-packages/celery/result.py", line 169, in get
    no_ack=no_ack,
  File "/home/mehdi/.virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.4/site-packages/celery/backends/base.py", line 225, in wait_for
    raise TimeoutError('The operation timed out.')
celery.exceptions.TimeoutError: The operation timed out.

```

The broker part seems to work just fine : when I run this code

```
from celery import Celery

app = Celery('tasks', backend='redis://localhost/', broker='amqp://')

@app.task
def add(x, y):
    return x + y

result = add.delay(4,4)

```

I get (as expected)

>

P.S : I'm using Xubuntu 64bit
