After running:
$ ./manage.py migrate I am getting the following error:
-bash: ./manage.py: Permission denied
Trying to run a migration after making a change in the DB.
Any advice would be really appreciated.
You need to make manage.py executable to excecute it. Do chmod +x manage.py to make it excecutable. Alternately you can do python manage.py <cmd> instead.
To give yourself execute permission for the file containing the script use the command:
chmod u+rwx filename.py
To give other users permission to read and execute but not alter the shell script use:
chmod go+rx filename.py

You can try to use
python manage.py migrate
instead of .
/manage.py migrate
I typed su root space after root and it worked.
root was my admin password then the CMD after with a space after the admin password.

so when I'm im in my root directory (where manage.py lives), if I do manage.py runserver it says command not found. I have to do ~/<project_name>/manage.py runserver for it to work. Why is this?
You can add manage.py to your bash as a alias to easily access it.
Add
alias <key>=“~/<project_name>/manage.py runserver”
Add it to ~/.bashrc file (create if doesn’t exists
Replace key with code you prefer like mnrun and rerun bash and type mnrun
In manage.py runserver, the manage.py is only a file, not a command! You can not do this since the Linux(shell) could only execute binary executable image.
If you want to run manage.py without python, you could add (supposed that you used Linux)
#!/usr/bin/env python
at the head of manage.py, and make it executable with chmod +x manage.py.
And now, you could run ./manage.py runserver
I have created a executeable script .sh which contains code to run a django managemenet command.
cron.sh
#!/bin/sh
. /path/to/env/activate
cd /path/to/project
/path/to/env/bin/python manage.py some_command
I can confirm this script and manage.py command is working by executing it directly on terminal
$ /path/to/cron.sh
When i do it same via crontab its not working as expected.
** What am i doing wrong ?? I can confirm there is nothing wrong with crontab, it executing the cron.sh file but path/to/env/bin/python manage.py some_command is not working as expected.
cron log also showing
CRON[14768]: (root) CMD /path/to/cron.sh > /dev/null 2>&1
I am using bitnami django ami (ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS)
Update
After removing /dev/null i am getting this error now
"Cannot locate wrapped file"
It seems that it is a PATH problem. I do not know if django uses specific paths that must be set but AFAIK the crontab PATH is really limited due to security reasons. Just to check if that is the problem you could do in a shell terminal the following:
echo $PATH
You will get a complete PATH for instance:
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/lib/jvm/default/bin:/usr/bin/site_perl:/usr/bin/vendor_perl:/usr/bin/core_perl
In your crontab, put it above your code:
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/lib/jvm/default/bin:/usr/bin/site_perl:/usr/bin/vendor_perl:/usr/bin/core_perl
Tell me if this works. If does, try to purge the provided PATH or even better provide absolute locations in your code.
I have to say that I don't know if you can perform a cd in the cron like this. I always used absolute paths or cd /some/dir && /path/to/script args.
P.S: I cannot make comments yet, for this reason I put it in an answer.
The problem is that your not using the script that Bitnami uses to load all the environment variables (/opt/bitnami/scritps/setenv.sh).
I would try using this script:
#!/bin/sh
. /opt/bitnami/scritps/setenv.sh
. /path/to/env/activate
cd /path/to/project
/path/to/env/bin/python manage.py some_command
I'm writing a startup.sh script to be ran when a docker container is created.
#!/bin/bash
python manage.py runserver
python manage.py makemigrations accounts
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py check_permissions
python manage.py cities --import=country --force
*python manage.py shell | from cities.models import * Country.objects.all().exclude(name='United States").delete()*
python manage.py cities --import=cities
python manage.py cities --import=postal_code
I am guessing the line in question is incorrect, what would be the correct way to do this in a bash script?
Use a heredoc:
python manage.py shell <<'EOF'
from cities.models import *
Country.objects.all().exclude(name='United States').delete()
EOF
It's not such a good idea to include django code in a shell script file. It's better to either make a python file and put those code in it and do:
python manage.py shell < script.py
Or better, write a django management command. In this way you could track your code in the same project/repo and people got less confused when they see this.
I have my Django app set up on Elastic Beanstalk and recently made a change to the DB that I would like to have applied to the live DB now. I understand that I need to set this up as a container command, and after checking the DB I can see that the migration was run, but I can't figure out how to have more controls over the migration. For example, I only want a migration to run when necessary but from my understanding, the container will run the migration on every deploy assuming the command is still listed in the config file. Also, on occassion, I will be given options during a migration such as:
Any objects realted to these content types by a foreign key will also be deleted.
Are you sure you want to delete these content types?
If you're unsure, answer 'no'
How do I set up the container command to respond to this with a yes during the deployment phase?
This is my current config file
container_commands:
01_migrate:
command: 'source /opt/python/run/venv/bin/actiate && python app/manage.py makemigrations'
command: 'source /opt/python/run/venv/bin/activate && python app/manage.py migrate'
Is there a way to set these 2 commands to only run when necessary and to respond to the yes/no options I receive during a migration?
I'm not sure there is a specific way to answer yes or no. but you can append --noinput to your container command. Use the --noinput option to suppress all user prompting, such as “Are you sure?” confirmation messages.
try
command: 'source /opt/python/run/venv/bin/activate && python app/manage.py migrate --noinput'
OR..
You can ssh into your elasticbean instance and run your command manually.
Then you'll have more control over the migrations.
Install awsebcli with pip install awsebcli
Type eb ssh Your EnvironmentName
Navigate to your eb instance app directory with:
sudo -s
source /opt/python/run/venv/bin/activate
source /opt/python/current/env
cd /opt/python/current/app
then run your command.
./manage.py migrate
I hope this helps
Aside from the automatic migration that you can add to deploy script (which runs every time you update the environment, and may not be desirable if you have long running migration or other Django management commands), you can ssh into an EB instance to run migration manually.
Here is how to manually run migration (and any other Django management commands) while working with Amazon Linux 2 (Python 3.7, 3.8) created by Elastic Beanstalk:
First, from your EB cli: eb ssh to connect an instance.
The virtual environment can be activated by
source /var/app/venv/*/bin/activate
The manage.py can be ran by
python3 /var/app/current/manage.py
Now the only tricky bit is to get Elastic Beanstalk's environment variables. You can access them by /opt/elasticbeanstalk/bin/get-config, I'm not super familiar with bash script, but here is a little script that I use to get and set environment variables, maybe someone can improve it to make it less hard-coded:
#! /bin/bash
export DJANGO_SECRET_KEY=$(/opt/elasticbeanstalk/bin/get-config environment -k DJANGO_SECRET_KEY)
...
More info regarding Amazon Linux 2 splatform script tools: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/custom-platforms-scripts.html
Make sure that the same settings are used when migrating and running!
Thus I would recommend you change this kind of code in django.config
container_commands:
01_migrate:
command: "source /opt/python/run/venv/bin/activate && python manage.py migrate"
leader_only: true
to:
container_commands:
01_migrate:
command: "django-admin migrate"
leader_only: true
option_settings:
aws:elasticbeanstalk:application:environment:
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE: fund.productionSettings
as recommended here. This will help you avoid issues with wrong settings used.
More on manage.py v.s. django-admin.py.
django-admin method not working as it was not configured properly. You can also use python manage.py migrate in
.ebextentions/django.config
container_commands:
01_migrate:
command: "python manage.py migrate"
leader_only: true
In reference to Oscar Chen answer, you can set environmental variables using eb cli with
eb setenv key1=value1 key2=valu2 ...etc
The trick is that the full output of container_commands is in /var/log/cfn-init-cmd.log (Amazon Linux 2 Elastic Beanstalk released November 2020).
To view this you would run:
eb ssh [environment-name]
sudo tail -n 50 -f /var/log/cfn-init-cmd.log
This doesn't seem to be documented anywhere obvious and it's not displayed by eb logs; I found it by hunting around in /var/log.
The Django example management command django-admin.py migrate did not work for me. Instead I had to use something like:
01_migrate:
command: "$PYTHONPATH/python manage.py migrate"
leader_only: true
02_collectstatic:
command: "$PYTHONPATH/python manage.py collectstatic --noinput --verbosity=0 --clear"
To see the values of your environment variables at deploy time, you can create a debug command like:
03_debug:
command: "env"
You can see most of these environment variable with eb ssh; sudo cat /opt/elasticbeanstalk/deployment/env, but there seem to be some subtle differences at deploy time, hence using env above to be sure.
Here you'll see that $PYTHONPATH is being in a non-typical way, pointing to the virtualenv's bin directory, not the site-packages directory.
This answer looks like it will work for you if you just want to send "yes" to a few prompts.
You might also consider the --noinput flag so that your config looks like:
container_commands:
01_migrate:
command: 'source /opt/python/run/venv/bin/actiate && python app/manage.py makemigrations'
command: 'source /opt/python/run/venv/bin/activate && python app/manage.py migrate --noinput
This takes the default setting, which is "no".
It also appears that there's an open issue/fix to solve this problem a better way.
I run this command:
make-messages.py -l fa
but it has this error:
'make-messages.py' is not recognized as an internal or external command.
I run it in my project root,app roo and django root,but all of them cause this error
what should I do?
That's obsolete. You should replace invoking make-messages.py with django-admin.py makemessages.
Run this command in project root
python manage.py makemessages -l fa
