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

For those (like me) who are getting this error from shell:

Check that you are executing Django's shell and not Python's shell.

python manage.py shell
