Django/Python EnvironmentError?

Question

I am getting an error when I try to use syncdb:

python manage.py syncdb

Error message:

File \"/usr/local/lib/p         


        

Answer 1

Your trace states:

Import by filename is not supported.

Which might indicate that you try to import (or maybe set the DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE) to the full python filename, where it should be a module path: your.module.settings

You could also try to specify your DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE directly from command line, like:

$ DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=your.module.settings ./manage.py syncdb
