ImportError: Couldn't import Django

Question

I\'ve already configured virtualenv in pycharm, when using the python manage.py command, this is error shown:

E:\\video course\\Python\\code\\web_worker\\MxO         


        

Answer 1

I was having great difficulties with this but I have solved my issue. I am on Windows 10 using Vagrant ssh in my virtualenv environment, the box I have installed is ubuntu/xenial64, Django version 2.1, python==3.6.

When I was installing packages I was using pip3 but most importantly I was using sudo and the -H flag to install these packages. When I ran sudo pip3 freeze my packages would come up, but when I ran a plain pip3 freeze there would be no packages.

Then I tried the python3 manage.py startapp and it did not work same error as you.

I finally thought to try sudo python3 manage.py startapp it finally worked!

Hope this was help :)
