runserver not working

[Delvin Alexander]

would anyone know why my "manage.py runserver" is not working?

Every time i try running it on the command prompt, i get relocated to my visual studio of manage.py file that states this:

#!/usr/bin/env python

"""Django's command-line utility for administrative tasks."""

import os

import sys

def main():

    """Run administrative tasks."""

    os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'django_project.settings')

    try:

        from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line

    except ImportError as exc:

        raise 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?"

        ) from exc

    execute_from_command_line(sys.argv)

if __name__ == '__main__':

    main()

A step in the right direction will be super helpful for me.

What Visual Studio shows you is the content of the file "manage.py".

Apparently when you enter "manage.py [whatever]", Windows understands that you want to open the file "manage.py", and it thinks that Visual Studio is the program with which such files should be opened.

Try "python manage.py runserver" instead.

Dear sir,

            Recently i have faced the same problem , what i did, i close those apps and uninstall completely (vscode and python) remember to uninstall vs you have to delete the extension files from app data which is hidden , and after delete i restart the pc , then again install , is solved out.

Another solution I can give that ,just find the path in vs code + sign i.e that path is in the python file and select the env, it will also solve....

Ensure that your manage.py file  on your settings folder has the right syntax as shown.
