Re: Problem with populate script
I got this working, I had to do two things. 1. add the following line at the top of the script: import django 2. add the following line after "os.environ.setdefault...": django.setup() -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: Problem with populate script
Is the path to the django source code is on your PYTHONPATH? If it's in the same directory, try: PYTHONPATH=. populate.py -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: Problem with populate script
This was really not a core function of the application, so I wold not worry about it. Just add the data to a csv page and import it into sql lite to get you going. But I believe that you need to tell Python where the data base is located using the settings file import os os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE']='settings' On Monday, September 29, 2014 1:51:13 PM UTC-4, Daniel Grace wrote: > > I am trying to follow the tutorial at http://www.tangowithdjango.com/ > I am stuck in section 5.8 where it shows how to create a script to > populate the database. > I created a script called "populate.py" as shown (except I added brackets > for the Python 3 print statements), > and saved it in the root directory for my project. > But when I run the script I get an error: > > (landy) C:\landy\tango>populate.py > Starting Rango population script... > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "C:\landy\tango\populate.py", line 59, in > from rango.models import Category, Page > File "C:\landy\tango\rango\models.py", line 1, in > from django.db import models > ImportError: No module named 'django.db' > > I tried placing the script in C:\landy\tango\tango and > C:\landy\tango\rango directories but I get similar errors. > > Is it a better approach to make the populate script into a manage command? > Or should I be using fixtures? > > Thanks > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Problem with populate script
I am trying to follow the tutorial at http://www.tangowithdjango.com/ I am stuck in section 5.8 where it shows how to create a script to populate the database. I created a script called "populate.py" as shown (except I added brackets for the Python 3 print statements), and saved it in the root directory for my project. But when I run the script I get an error: (landy) C:\landy\tango>populate.py Starting Rango population script... Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\landy\tango\populate.py", line 59, in from rango.models import Category, Page File "C:\landy\tango\rango\models.py", line 1, in from django.db import models ImportError: No module named 'django.db' I tried placing the script in C:\landy\tango\tango and C:\landy\tango\rango directories but I get similar errors. Is it a better approach to make the populate script into a manage command? Or should I be using fixtures?
