Need help whit DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE

[Ilie Ioana]

Hi,I'm new with django and python.

I just strated a new django project in a venv using django 3.0 and seems that DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE is not set when running django-admin runserver

Enter code here.(test1) ioana.i@ioana-spamexperts:~/Workspace/Ioana/test1/test1$ django-admin runserver

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/home/ioana.i/Workspace/Ioana/test1/bin/django-admin", line 8, in <module>

    sys.exit(execute_from_command_line())

  File "/home/ioana.i/Workspace/Ioana/test1/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 401, in execute_from_command_line

    utility.execute()

  File "/home/ioana.i/Workspace/Ioana/test1/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 395, in execute

    self.fetch_command(subcommand).run_from_argv(self.argv)

  File "/home/ioana.i/Workspace/Ioana/test1/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/core/management/base.py", line 328, in run_from_argv

    self.execute(*args, **cmd_options)

  File "/home/ioana.i/Workspace/Ioana/test1/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/core/management/commands/runserver.py", line 60, in execute

    super().execute(*args, **options)

  File "/home/ioana.i/Workspace/Ioana/test1/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/core/management/base.py", line 369, in execute

    output = self.handle(*args, **options)

  File "/home/ioana.i/Workspace/Ioana/test1/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/core/management/commands/runserver.py", line 67, in handle

    if not settings.DEBUG and not settings.ALLOWED_HOSTS:

  File "/home/ioana.i/Workspace/Ioana/test1/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/conf/__init__.py", line 76, in __getattr__

    self._setup(name)

  File "/home/ioana.i/Workspace/Ioana/test1/lib/python3.6/site-packages/django/conf/__init__.py", line 61, in _setup

    % (desc, ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE))

django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Requested setting DEBUG, but settings are not configured. You must either define the environment variable DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE or call settings.configure() before accessing settings.

..

 

I tried to set it myself with export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=test1.settings but i receive  ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'test1'

Seems like test1 module is not in the path, shouldn't be automatically added there?

to run the server use:

Python manage.py runserver

It would be better if you send a picture of the project files structure.

DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE is not the problem I guess, as its not there even in my settings.py. Did you define your app in apps settings?

Amitesh
