Re: Problems with first tutorial

I hope this helps, when working under windows (XP/7) this just works for me.

Replace <project> with whatever you have named it.

From the directory above where the project was created create a batch file (ie <project>.bat) containing the following

set <project>_HOME=%CD%

set DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=<project>.settings

set PYTHONPATH=%<project>_HOME%

You can add any other additional pythonpath requirements with the delimiter of a semicolon ';'

 

You could also hardcode the "<project>_HOME" variable, but this is up to you

 

Once done the following should work for you via the command prompt.

 

Run the batch file above from the directory it was created in

<project>

cd <project>

manage.py shell

Im on the Playing with the API part and seem to catch some troubles.

Everything has gone smoothly until this part.

I write this and get the next error. This is with my enviromen_variable: DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE set to where I can find the settings.py in my project.

C:\Prosjekter\Djangotest\testproject>python manage.py shell

ImportError: Could not import settings 'C:\Prosjekter\Djangotest\testproject\testproject' (Is it on sys.path?): Import by filename is not supported.

With out the env variable I get this error:

C:\Prosjekter\Djangotest\testproject>python manage.py shell

ImportError: No module named user

I have done the sync part and I can see that the postgreSQL have the tables in its database.

I have also done everything right until this part.

As i understood, I did not have to set env variable when I used python manage.py shell.

Can someone help me please:)
