django.db.utils.OperationalError: unable to open database file

Question

When I run

python manage.py runserver

I get this error

Answer 1

Just remove the first db in your settings.py file.

You have os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'db/db.sqlite3') if you remove the first db, you'll have os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'db.sqlite3')

Your database settings will be

DATABASES = {
    'default': dj_database_url.config(
        default="sqlite:///{}".format(
            os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'db.sqlite3')
        )
    )
}
