django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Requested setting LOGGING_CONFIG, but settings are not configured

Question

I\'m trying to run a populate script which I put together from the tango_with_django tutorial (https://github.com/leifos/tango_with_django/blob/master/tango_with_django_project/

Answer 1

I met the same problem when setting the environment.

(I tried to add the:

os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "my_project.settings")

into the "Starting script window",which is in the Django Console or rewrite the .wsgi file, But all of them were failed)

My final solution: (open the terminal and set the environment manually)

Here are the steps:(for mac)

1. open the terminal and type vim ~/.bash_profile

2. add below lines:

    PATH=${PATH}:/Users/work/workspace/[virtual_environment]/bin
    PYTHONPATH=${PATH}:/Users/work/PycharmProjects/[project_name]
    DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=[project_name].settings
   

3. type :wq to save and exit terminal

4. type source ~/.bash_profile to reload it

it will work when you run python manage.py shell this time.
