I have python3 installed with Django 1.8.2 on Mac OS. There is also python 2.7 installed by default with the OS. When trying to run startproject I get -
$ django-admin startproject mysite
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/django-admin", line 7, in <module>
from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line
ImportError: No module named django.core.management
It is likely defaulting to the system's python 2.7 which does not have django. How do I force it to use python3? I tried aliasing python to python3 in the shell but that didn't work either.
Recommended: Try using virtualenv and initiate your environment with Python3.
Or a quicker solution is to use python interpreter directly to execute django-admin:
<path-to-python3>/python /usr/local/bin/django-admin startproject mysite

The following command was executed in the tests directory inside the development version of django
./runtests.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./runtests.py", line 26, in <module>
from django.test.utils import NullTimeKeeper, TimeKeeper, get_runner
ImportError: cannot import name 'NullTimeKeeper'
I am using python 3.8 and am following the instructions for contributing to django from https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.1/intro/contributing/ where I have resolved all errors up to this point. Could someone explain what I would have to do as I already ran
python3.8 -m pip install -r requirements/py3.txt
in my virtual environment that I created using
python3.8 -m venv /path/to/venv
Never mind I found the answer. It is solved by configuring python3 to 3.8 version instead of 3.6 in the following link configuring python and then executing all of this in the virtual environment.
i'm a total noob in django so go easy on me..
i tried to run these commands on ubuntu terminal and gave me the same error
python3 manage.py migrate
python manage.py makemigrations MyAppName
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py syncdb --all
error message:
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'
The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "manage.py", line 14, in <module>
) from exc
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?
and i was told that i should never edit manage.py
update: i manged to run the project and made some modifications on it.
Django is not installed, use this comamnd to install it:
pip install django
Just do a check of all modules installed using command - pip list
If it does not show django in the list of modules install it using - pip install django
If it shows django in the list then the version of django installed may not be compatible with the version of python you are using. You can try installing a compatible version of django.
Also, you can create a virtual environment and install django inside the environment.
I've created a virtualenv in Windows 7 on a shared folder so that I can work on it with other colleagues.
I set up the virtualenv to have python3.5 and installed Django but when I activate it from my mac I see python 2.7 and I cannot run the runserver command and I get this error as if Django was not installed.
(WebSite) UNKNOWN:myenv user$ python3 manage.py runserver
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "manage.py", line 8, in <module>
from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line
ImportError: No module named 'django'
I'm fairly sure it could be an easy fix, but cannot find a guide online that explains if Windows and Mac are "compatibles".
I have a Django project, that's already been deployed. I'm using a virtualenv for the project and have installed django in it. I have activated the virtualenv.
When I type pip freeze I get:
Django==1.7.1
django-jalali==1.1
django-multiselectfield==0.1.3
jdatetime==1.3
But when I try this command: python3 manage.py createsuperuser I get the following error:
(.env)benyamin#i-bmn:/srv/bmn-reg$ python3 manage.py createsuperuser
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "manage.py", line 8, in <module>
from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line
ImportError: No module named 'django'
(.env)benyamin#i-bmn:/srv/bmn-reg$
How can I fix this?
Check whethere pip is using python3 by issuing the following command:
pip -V
You may need to use pip3 or pip3.x to install packages into Python 3.x environment if pip is using Python 2.x.
UPDATE
You're using virtualenv, you should use python (which references proper python executable), not python3 (probably references system version of python 3.x).
First time here!
And first time with Django also!
I read same issue here on StackOverFlow, e.g: Django:No module named django.core.management but without any result
Purpose:
Install a Django app (based on 1.5.1 on windows 8
I have + tested (e.g: pip --version):
Python 2.7
Pip 1.5.6
Virtualenv 1.11.6
I followed the instructions, and when I run:
python manage.py runserver
P.S:
I created my env,
$ virtualenv --distribute myenv
and activate it using:
source myenv/Scripts/activate
I got this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "manage.py", line 8, in <module>
from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line
ImportError: No module named django.core.management
Any help how to debug the issue?
PPS: Please read the comments bellow!

You don't have django installed in your virtual environment.
Just do this: pip install django
In your case, to make sure the right one pip is used: env/Scripts/pip install django
Virtual environment is isolated "python + packages folder", so you need to install your packages again, but for this virtual evironment.
It is obvious, because you have exception at 8 line of manage.py, which tries to import special django function to run command-line commands.
