I'm working on a Django-nonrel project using Django-rest-framework and I've run into the following error after following the instructions in the Token Authorization section of their Authorization API Guide:
ImportError: No module named rest_framework.authtoken
Normally I would just assume that this is something to do with my PYTHONPATH but I don't think that's exactly what the problem is because I can import this framework from both IDLE and the project's shell run using manage.py, the latter both with and without a virtual environment. Within the virtual environment I have installed django and djangorestframework, which should be the only requiremnets for the project thus far.
I had thought that it might have been a Python versioning problem but given that I can import the package directly from the project's shell (running under the virtual env) I'm kind of at a loss since theoretically running manage.py from the same virtual environment should result in the same context for locating libraries.
I've spent a long time searching around trying to fix this issue but to no avail. Any suggestions? I'm happy to provide any additional information as needed!
A few things to check:
Are you sure you are using the directory one level above rest_framework in your PYTHONPATH?
Did you restart your shell after installation?
Take a look at VirtualEnv PYTHONPATH setup. Did you try setting the PYTHONPATH for virtualenv explicitly?

I am following the “Getting Started With Django on Render” tutorial (https://render.com/docs/deploy-django#update-your-app-for-render) and all was going well until I got to “Configure Django for PostgreSQL”. I have everything copied correctly but I am getting errors now when I run python manage.py runserver this is the error:
File "/Users/user/Desktop/First_Program/Portfolio_Projects/Charter_Django_App/Charter_Django_App/config/settings.py", line 14, in <module>

And also shows in poetry.lock file.
If anybody knows why this is happening and can please give me some insight. I followed the tutorial to the T but am new to using poetry.
I am also a bit confused as to where I store the environment variables such as SECRET_KEY as the tutorial is not very descriptive at that point. I am used to using pip install environs[django] then running
env = Env() env.read_env()
And reading from the .env file
Thank you x1000 in advance to anybody that may help me get my application running
I'm guessing the error is from you're virtualenv either you're not activating it or the packages are not installed in the virtualenv.
if you are using vscode try Ctrl + Shift + p and search for Python: select interpreter make sure the interpreter vscode is using is you're venv if click on it and go to myvenv/Scripts/ there you can see a file python.exe choose it.
It's hard to be sure as you didn't post that many things to begin with. But if you managed your virtual environment through poetry, then you should run :
poetry run python manage.py runserver
(instead of python manage.py runserver)
(As for environment variables, I've been advised to try python-dotenv. I haven't had the chance to test it yet, but it seems easier than most things. I'm not sure if that will help you with render.yaml though...)
I'm building a django application using Pyinstaller.
When I run the application i get an error from dapne server.
"daphne\server.py:13: UserWarning: Something has already installed a non-asyncio Twisted reactor. Attempting to uninstall it; you can fix this warning by importing daphne.server early in your codebase or finding the package that imports Twisted and importing it later on."
In addition, when I compare the console log of the EXE application and a regular run of the django application I notice the following difference.
In the regular run which works as expected I see the following print:
"Django version 2.1.5, using settings 'cfehome.settings'
Starting ASGI/Channels version 2.1.5 development server at http://0.0.0.0:8000/"
however, when I run the application from the EXE I see:
"Django version 2.1.5, using settings 'cfehome.settings'
Starting development server at http://0.0.0.0:8000/"
Appreciate any lead to understand this behavior and ways to fix it.
I know this is old but for others seeking answer. There's a simple fix:
Before importing raven in settings.py, import daphne.server So, your settings.py will look like this:
import daphne.server
import raven
For further information you can read: https://github.com/django/channels/issues/793
I hope it will help.
In eclipse,when i create new project, i got an error like,
Error creating Django project
settings.py file not created
Stdout:
Stderr:
If i synchronize present project and runserver, iam getting Error: No module named filterspecs.But i haven't used filterspecs in my project. Already filterspecs.py installed in usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/contrib/admin.
Kindly advise to rectify the error.
You may be using django.contrib.admin.filterspecs to create custom filters for your admin pages, such as outlined here:
Custom Filter in Django Admin on Django 1.3 or below
Unfortunatelly, you will have to rewrite these using the new list_filter module functionality.
See the manual here:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.list_filter
This happened to me as well, even though my code wasn't directly using any filterspecs.
Run python manage.py runserver --traceback to see exactly where the error is coming from.
This module was removed in Django 1.4, but other external modules you have listed in your settings.py might still be using it, so make sure you upgrade everything in your INSTALLED_APPS list. In my case, I was using an outdated version of FeinCMS, but after I upgraded it, the error went away.
Obviously, your system is lacking filterspecs module which is required by the project. Install it by typing sudo pip install filterspecs in the console (if you are on linux)
I'm a student and the lab staff has set up permissions that won't students install software on the machines (or to our profiles).
I'm curious how I can develop Django application in a contained environment. I checked out the Django trunk to my Ubuntu home directory and added the bin path to my .bashrc. But when I try to use django-admin.py, an error occurs:
ImportError: No module named django.core
I'm quite confident this is simply a path issue. My real question is whether there's a proper to do self-contained development or if I need to manually add paths, and which if so.
In advance, thanks.
You can manually set the path:
import sys
sys.path.append('/home/kevin/dir_with_module')
You may also want to look into setting up a virtual environment. This article has good information: http://www.clemesha.org/blog/modern-python-hacker-tools-virtualenv-fabric-pip/
Trying to upload my django app on my obunto slice. The problem I'm facing right now there are a couple of packages I'm using. Which I installed in site packages on my machine. Now when I put them online on the server their sadly not working. Any ideas how to make them work.
p.s I get a error on import
Python must have a way to find these packages. Did you use standard installation procedures for them (i.e. setup.py install) or copy them in an accessible directory? If you didn't use setup.py install, check your PYTHONPATH environment variable. It should contain the directory where your packages are stored. If it doesn't, you can create it.
This is a Python issue really, not a Django issue.
To get more help paste the import error you're getting, as well as the directory structure of where you installed this package.
