Getting 'DatabaseOperations' object has no attribute 'geo_db_type' error when doing a syncdb

Question

I\'m attempting to run heroku run python manage.py syncdb on my GeoDjango app on Heroku, but I get the following error:

AttributeError: \'Databa

Answer 1

I forgot to comment out the db settings further down in settings.py:

# Update database configuration with $DATABASE_URL.
#db_from_env = dj_database_url.config(conn_max_age=500)
#DATABASES['default'].update(db_from_env)

These lines were overriding the settings that I had added above
