Anyone can help? Any pointer will be helpful. 

Thanks.

What database backend do you use in your sentry settings? Default is SQLite.

Recommended is Postgres though. 

If you change this (database backend), you'll also need to install the appropriate python

package: psycopg2 (Postgres) or mysql-python

For me I use postgresql, so I have to do 

pip install psycopg2

Hope this helps.
