ImportError: No module named mysite.settings (Django)

Question

I have installed Django and mod_wsgi-express on an ubuntu 15.10. Basically (notice I did not do this as root):

pip install Django
pip instal         


        

Answer 1

Please try:

    import os
    import sys
    BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)))
    sys.path.append(BASE_DIR)
    os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'YOURAPP.settings'
    os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "YOURAPP.settings")

This is working for scripts in main project directory, as well ..
