python - Google App Engine: task_retry_limit doesn't work?

Question

I have a Python GAE app.

I want my tasks to stop running or just retry once if they fail. Right now, they run forever despite what my yaml file is telling them!

Here is a queue.yaml entry:

 - name: globalPurchase
   rate: 10/s
   bucket_size: 100
   retry_parameters:
     task_retry_limit: 1

If globalPurchase task fails with a 500 error code, it is retried forever until it succeeds with this message in the logs:

"Task named "task14" on queue "globalPurchase" failed with code 500; will retry in 30 seconds"

Why is task_retry_limit not actually being used?
