WindowsError: [Error 127] The specified procedure could not be found
I tried installing my app in another laptop but it throws an error in which I haven't encounter before. What causes it? Any help?
I followed the installation guide, installed all in 32-bit version.
After running the geodjango.bat file from the installation guide the above error occurs.
Error after running the command: python manage.py runserver

Check out the answer here
OSGEO4W has upgraded to GDAL 1.11, but QGIS 2.2 not; causing the version conflict. The dll should have the same date as the GDAL exe files.
[...]
If you don't need ECW support, you could simply delete or move the dll.
