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

问题

I am trying to upgrade a project from Django 1.6 to 1.7. So far, I have created a new virtualenv with all the same installs and upgraded the Django version to the new release. I need to upgrade from South, but had errors doing so, so I thought I'll initially just try runserver, and I get the following error:

    django.core.exceptions.AppRegistryNotReady: Models aren't loaded yet.

Any ideas what might be causing the error and how to fix it?

回答1:

The problem is with this line ("/Users/Name/Dev/tps/products/models.py", line 127):

watson.register(Product.objects.exclude(productimage=None))

You try to reference a model at the import time. It is no longer possible in Django 1.7. Django 1.7 allows you to use your models only after all of the applications are loaded. You should move this call to the ready callback of AppConfig, like this:

from django.apps import AppConfig


class ProductsConfig(AppConfig):
    name = 'products'

    def ready(self):
        Product = self.get_model('Product')
        watson.register(Product.objects.exclude(productimage=None))

Then you should reference this AppConfig in the __init__.py of your products app:

default_app_config = 'products.apps.ProductsConfig'

Where apps is the name of the module where you put the config.

Overall, because of this change, migrating to Django 1.7 is not as easy as one would like it to be. Here are some troubleshooting tips: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/ref/applications/#troubleshooting

I was getting this error when I updated my django project template to 1.7. One thing that changed is the wsgi.py file so that needed some updating. Here is my traceback:

AppRegistryNotReady: Apps aren't loaded yet.

This is what the wsgi.py file looked like:

import os
os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "settings")
import django.core.handlers.wsgi
application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()

And now (running Django 1.7 with gunicorn 19.1.0):

import os
os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "settings")
from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application
application = get_wsgi_application()

Changing the last two lines fixed it. Note your DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE might be different, typically it is "project_name.settings"

I'm late to the party, but if you're using django-registration, you'll have to switch to django-regitration-redux.

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-registration-redux/

See this answer: Django-registration compatibility issue with django 1.7

I found the solution doing:

import django

django.setup()
