Whitenoise collectstatic failing on none existent file

I seem to be getting an issue with serving running collectstatic when whitenoise is enabled. I keep getting an error about a missing file - not quite sure why.
Here is the fill traceback
Post-processing 'third/vendors/owl-carousel/assets/owl.carousel.css' failed!

Django-MarkItUp: Exception while starting tests (AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'raw')

I can't find the solution for an exception when I start my tests which suddenly accured while coding. The website still works fine with runserver. Here is the full traceback:

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'raw'
Normally I try to narrow the issue down myself. But in this case I don't get anywhere.
I didn't update any packages. These are the packages in question:
Django (1.10.7)
django-markitup (3.0.0)
(The exception disappears when I replace my MarkupField with a standard TextField in models.py.)
Update: The error appears when I use --keepdb successively.

Seems you can fix it by
class MyMarkupField(MarkupField):
def value_to_string(self, obj):
value = self._get_val_from_obj(obj)
if hasattr(value, "raw"):
return value.raw
return value
Then
field = MyMarkupField()
Actually i dont know why this error is coming.

Upgrading to Django 1.7. AssertionError: To use StatusField, the model 'ShellRequest' must have a STATUS choices class attribute

I was upgrading from Django 1.6 to 1.7. Python 2.7 is installed which is compatible with Django 1.7. While I did run the code python manage.py makemigrations, I got the following error message:

Reading the blogpost here, I couldn't figure out where to start. If anyone can give me a guideline how to deal with this issue would be appreciated.

The choices class field attribute is probably what you're looking for.
If you are using django-model-utils, the choices section of the package doc might help too.

Django AttributeError: 'getfullargspec' object has no attribute 'default'

I teared down Django-oscar for practice and rebuild it not in capacity of a plugin app but as Django project. Now I am having this issue but couldn't figure out what it is related to exactly. Can someone help me to resolve this?
Following is the error I am getting:

You are on Windows as per the error description. Use 'manage.py shell' instead of 'python manage.py shell'.

I may suggest that you are trying to use ManyToMany field with 'through' option.
To fix it you need to do the next:
Comment a whole line where you use ManyToMany+through by putting # at the beginning of the line
makemigrations of_all_apps_you_need (also the one where the line from p1 exist)
uncomment the line from p1
makemigrations the_app_where_the_line_from_p1_exist
migrate
