Django 1.7 upgrade error: AppRegistryNotReady: Apps aren't loaded yet

Question

I am trying to upgrade a project from Django 1.6 to 1.7. I get the following error:

[Thu Oct 09 14:16:41 2014] [error] [client 95.79.172.156] mod_wsgi (pid=1         


        

Answer 1

In my case the error was caused when I upgraded celery to 4.x and I had this in my INSTALLED_APPS: kombu.transport.django. Removing that resolved the issue. Seems it is mostly caused by some incorrect load of django itself.
