apologies if this question has been asked a ton, I'm sure it has, and I've been trying for days to figure this out, but I can't wrap my head around it. I've been developing in Python for over 1.5 years, so I'm not a complete beginner.
I can't get Django to work in my command prompt. An example is, when I try to use py .\manage.py makemigrations this is what I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File ".\manage.py", line 11, in main
from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'django'
The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File ".\manage.py", line 22, in <module>
main()
File ".\manage.py", line 13, in main
raise ImportError(
ImportError: Couldn't import Django. Are you sure it's installed and available on your PYTHONPATH environment variable? Did you forget to activate a virtual environment?
Now, I can see what the error says. The thing is my virtual environment is activated and it has Django installed, as seen here. Moreover, even if I executed outside my venv, it still doesn't work, even though I have all necessary Python directories in my PATH, as seen here.
I have verified that django-admin is installed on both my venv and my system, as well as Django itself, since I can import it on my Python Console. The version is 3.1.7. I have also tried reinstalling Django and it didn't work.
Another error I get, when I attempt to run Django console through PyCharm is this:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<input>", line 6, in <module>
File "C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\site-packages\django\__init__.py", line 19, in setup

File "C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\site-packages\django\conf\__init__.py", line 63, in _setup
raise ImproperlyConfigured(
django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Requested setting LOGGING_CONFIG, but settings are not configured. You must either define the environment variable DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE or call settings.configure() before accessing settings.
I hope this helps you come up with any idea. Could anyone please share any insight on why I'm getting this? I would greatly appreciate it.
Edit: I have installed Django through PIP:
py -m pip install django
py -m pip install djangorestframework
py -m pip install django-admin
Also, Django is imported correctly from the Python Console within the venv:
>>> import django
>>> django
<module 'django' from 'C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Roaming\\Python\\Python39\\site-packages\\django\\__init__.py'>
in cmd to create a virtualenv
python -m venv virtualenv_name
to enable virtualenv
virtualenv_name\scripts\activate.bat
then
pip install django
and to create a project
django-admin startproject projectname
to run the project
cd projectname
python manage.py runserver

I don't know why but I can't run any comands in the vSCode Terminal.
For example, when I try python manage.py createsuperuser I get an error that can't find Python. So I do py manage.py createsuperuser and then I get a syntax error saying that manage.py doesn't exist or something like that.
Anyone know why this is and how I could fix it?
UPDATE:
I currently have the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\XXXXX\argon-dashboard-django\manage.py", line 13, in main
from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'django'
The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\XXXXX\argon-dashboard-django\manage.py", line 23, in <module>
main()
File "C:\XXXXX\argon-dashboard-django\manage.py", line 15, in main
raise ImportError(
ImportError: Couldn't import Django. Are you sure it's installed and available on your PYTHONPATH environment variable? Did you forget to activate a virtual environment?
Here's my manage.py
import os
import sys
def main():
os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'core.settings')
try:
from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line
except ImportError as exc:
raise ImportError(
"Couldn't import Django. Are you sure it's installed and "
"available on your PYTHONPATH environment variable? Did you "
"forget to activate a virtual environment?"
) from exc
execute_from_command_line(sys.argv)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
So there seems to be an import error somewhere. And I tried it with my venv activated:
(env) C:\Users\valen\OneDrive\Bureau\DOCARET\Autres\argon-dashboard-django>py manage.py createsuperuser
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\valen\OneDrive\Bureau\DOCARET\Autres\argon-dashboard-django\manage.py", line 13, in main

When I got the same issue in my windows machine..(probably occurred because I did some C drive repair)
I also can't able to run python manage.py runserver , I got the same error
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'Django'
I did the following steps.. to overcome my error:
On my main folder terminal Check If you have already a "requiremnts.txt" file skip this step else run this command: pip freeze > requirements.txt ,if it saves all your packages then only do other steps
Delete Venv folder from the main directory.
Again install virtual environments and activate Venv.
then run this command pip install -r requirements.txt this will install all your packages back.
Run again python manage.py runserver , It will work fine
I've got a properly activated venv in zsh, because I can see (venv) at the beginning of the prompt, but when I try to run Django with the command python manage.py runserver I've the error
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "manage.py", line 8, in <module>
from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'django'
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

import django

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

"Couldn't import Django. Are you sure it's installed and "
ImportError: Couldn't import Django. Are you sure it's installed and available on your PYTHONPATH environment variable? Did you forget to activate a virtual environment?
If I run which which python I can see python: aliased to /usr/local/bin/python3.7 that it seems wrong, because I expect something like /Users/myuser/Python-Projects/test/venv/bin/python. In fact if I disable the venv the result of which python is the same.
I tried to the same steps with bash and everything works fine, so I guess I've got something wrong with zsh, but I don't know what.
As a workaround to run Django I must run the command venv/bin/python manage.py runserver, so it's like the root python in some way is broken. I tried to update zsh to latest version, but problem is still there.
Any ideas?
Problem found. It was an alias for python in .zshrc.
I am having trouble in running a flask file that is manager.py on Windows 10. Although I installed requirements, it still aborts an import error.What's funny is the errors are different in PyCharm and cmd. And I activated the same virtual environment.I will appreciate it if someone can help me!
In PyCharm:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Here are my requirments.txt:

zope.interface==4.1.2
Please fix your import statement as follows, and could you try?
from flask_script import Manager
EDIT
Sorry, even using flask.ext.{}, it seems still works.
If you run the following command, what come back?
pip install Flask-Script==2.0.5
It means that 'Flask-Script' was not installed, check your 'pip freeze'.
Was there any error when installing the requirements? If so, try to identify the issue.
Try installing it:
$ pip install Flask-Script
OK. The problem is solved.orz. My command line is :
python manage.py
Actually, I used the Python interpreter in system path by mistake.And I run this command :
./enve/Scripts/python.exe manage.py
There are no import errors again, thank you who answered me still.
I followed djangogirls tutorial to get started with django and had everything working. Once I finished the basic tutorial, everything in working order, I decided to go through the steps again to make something new and become more familiar with using git, django, venv, etc.
fyi - I am on windows 10 and have python 2.7 and python 3.5 installed. I am using python 3.5.2 with django 1.10.4.
steps:
>mkdir v2
>cd v2
>"d:/python 3.5.2/python" -m venv myenv
>cd myenv/scripts/activate
(myenv) python -m pip install -U pip
for some reason this is the only way I was able to upgrade pip this time around
(myenv) d:/v2/myenv/scripts> pip install django~=1.10.0
(myenv) d:/v2/myenv/scripts> django-admin.py startproject mysite
This is where the magic doesn't happen:
d:\v2>django-admin.py startproject mysite2

As far as I am aware, I followed the same steps. I am not sure why the djano installed in my venv would be referencing python 2.7, since I thought if created my venv from the python 3.5.2 dir it would reference that version, along with anything I used pip for within that dir?
Can someone help me find what I am missing here? ty.
By default virtualenv uses python2. If you want to use python3, you have to specify it explicitly.
Run following command to setup virtualenv with python3:
virtualenv -p python3 envname
While in "Python 3.5.2/scripts" I ran:
virtualenv d:/<dirname>
Everything after(django-admin.py startproject projectname) worked correctly. Still not sure what went wrong here but maybe this helps someone else...
I'm having trouble installing the package django-tracking using Django 1.5.4 and Ubuntu 13.04. I've tried pip, easy_install and python setup.py install with no results. I get the following error message:

I think it may be something simple that I'm just not seeing... Django-tracking is available here: https://bitbucket.org/codekoala/django-tracking
Please help! Thank you!
I finally installed it using the Bitbucket repo instead of the Github one. I don't know what's the difference but it seems it is more up to date. By the way, the otter methods (pip and easy_install) didn't work either.
Try following:
pip install git+https://github.com/bashu/django-tracking.git
