unable to create translation files

[gerard]

hello all,

i'm using Django 1.4 LTS, and try to add localisation to my project.
According the doc:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.4/topics/i18n/translation/#localization-how-to-create-language-files

i have to do:
django-admin.py makemessages --all

i did it and have the error:
django-admin.py makemessages -v 3 --traceback --all
--settings=agenda.settings
...
ImportError: Could not import settings 'agenda.settings' (Is it on
sys.path?): No module named agenda.settings

but it exists:
$ python manage.py shell
Python 2.7.8 (default, Oct 19 2014, 16:03:53)
[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 6.0 (clang-600.0.51)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
(InteractiveConsole)
>>> from agenda.settings import *
>>>

Anybody can help? Thanks in advance,

"python manage.py makemessages --settings=agenda.settings"

I suspect the difference is between running manage.py and running
django-admin.py - manage.py might add the directory containing it to
sys.path.

If you run "python" (rather than manage.py shell) in the directory you
are trying to makemessages in, can you import agenda.settings?

Cheers

Tom

you're right:
$ python manage.py makemessages --all --settings=agenda.settings -v 3
--traceback --all
examining files with the extensions: .html and .txt

very thanks!
