Super simple question: I went through the "getting start" doc for haystack (using whoosh; I installed both python-whoosh and haystack using pip (first time using it)), and I simply cannot run python manage.py rebuild_index. I get this error:
python manage.py rebuild_index
Unknown command: 'rebuild_index'
Type 'manage.py help' for usage
I do have 'haystack' listed in my INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py, so this solution doesn't seem to work for me. I also don't get import errors when I run "import haystack" so it does exist. I tried this on my existing project as well as a brand new object made just for this and I just can't get it to work.
However, when I import haystack after python manage.py shell and try haystack.__version__ I get "AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'version'". I get a similar error if I try haystack.management: it has no management attribute.
It must be something super simple I'm missing. Thank you for reading this!
Did you perhaps install the wrong thing? This (embarrassingly) happend to me just today. Make sure you install 'django-haystack' and not just 'haystack' (and you will have to remove 'haystack', since it conflicts with 'django-haystack').
Do you have the path to haystack in your Python path? (Either the PYTHONPATH shell variable or the sys.path Python list.)
Did you run python manage.py syncdb?
Does python manage.py shell followed by import haystack work?
After import haystack, what do you get for haystack.__version__?
In the same shell, type the following. Do you get errors for any of them?
haystack.management.commands
haystack.management.commands.rebuild_index
haystack.management.commands.rebuild_index.Command.help
I had the same error that you did, and fixed it by removing the old .egg and installing directly from the latest version. You can use easy_install:
easy_install https://github.com/toastdriven/django-haystack/zipball/v1.2.4
Hope this helps!
I had the same problem - for whatever reason, the haystack version in pip is quite old and obsolete (v 0.6 as of today). To use django-haystack check out the v1. source.
It compiles and installs simply with
python setup.py build
python setup.py install
Hope that helps!
I just had the same problem and hadn't set HAYSTACK_SITECONF in my settings.py.
Instead of using python manage.py rebuild_index try using ./manage.py rebuild_index
just do
pip uninstall haystack and
pip install django-haystack

I'm diving into a Django docs and I'm using the latest Django (4.0.4) and Python 3.10.0
Whenever I try the command django-admin startproject mysite it gives the error "AttributeError: module 'collections' has no attribute 'Iterator'"
I am using a virtual environment as well which has the Django installed on it.
I tried uninstalling the django and reinstalling but no changed in the program..
Please guide me into the right direction.
Thank you!
Django 4.0.4 was just released few days back.
You know, django-admin is a Python script that gets added to your PATH variable so that it's invocable from the command line with django-admin (as opposed to something like python3 -m django_admin) maybe there was an older version lurking around your PATH that reinstalling will help you fix
or
Use an older version of Python (Django 2.x, as used by that project supports up to Python 3.7).
I'm trying a Django tutorial. For some reason my existing superuser got deleted; creating that went fine, but I can't make another one. This also happens when I try to use pip.
I didn't change anything in the libraries so not sure why this happens now but didn't before. On windows 7 (Python 3.6.3 and Django 1.11). I've seen similar but not the exact same problems for Windows. Still I checked the file and there seems to be a PathLike class.
I've also tried to repair my Python installation but it didn't help. any ideas?
Seems like you may have modified the settings.py file. But as MrName mentioned you need to share full stack trace
This looks like a feature that changed in Python3.6 as you can see here. Make sure that your python version is 3.6 or greater.
Update your Python and Django version and that will work perfect.
AttributeError: module 'os' has no attribute 'PathLike'
Installing it into the global site-packages with the below command solved my problem:
pip install --user virtualenvwrapper
I want to see the django version in my Pycharm terminal, but I don't get the correct method.
I tried bellow methods in pycharm terminal:
1) django --version and django version
2) import django, and print the version by:
import django
print django.VERSION
But I still can not get it.
If you cannot print the Django version from the python console in Pycharm, go to settings>Project:project_name>project Interpreter and from the list of installed packages see the installed Django and it's version for that project.
You can run pip freeze too. Just filtering the results with grep...
pip freeze | grep Django
You're trying to access a version attribute, but you can find out Django's version using the get_version method:
import django
django.get_version()
In the terminal you can use bellow command to check the version of django:
python -m django --version
If you want to use your second method, just like this bellow command:
python -c "import django; print(django.VERSION)"
(1, 11, 2, u'final', 0)
go to setting > project > project Interpreter and install Django package
then run the code
import django
print(django.get_version())
Run pip freeze > requirements.txt
A .txt file with that name will be created automatically, open the file and check for the django version and other previously installed libraries.
I do not know about pychram but the most efficient way to query the django version without importing django globally would be this:
from django import VERSION as DJANGO_VERSION
if DJANGO_VERSION >= (2, 0):
pass
What was not proposed in this question which is something similar:
How to check Django version
I had the same question. The solution is simple.
Just create a project, open settings.py file and observe the first comment lines. You will see the version info in there as displayed below:
Image of settings.py that shows the Django version
I found the solution here.
Simplest is
import django
print(django.get_version())
Using the following command on terminal will give you django version
python -m django --version
Or
You can go to the interactive python prompt and use the command
import django
print(django.get_version())
or using pip freeze and grep you can also get the django version
pip freeze | grep Django
I've just started looking into python and django.. Im pretty sure ive successfull installed both python and the django framework and i managed to add python and django-admin.py to my system path but now when i run the command django-admin.py startproject My_Test_Site, in the folder i want to create a new project directory in (just following the tutorials), i get the following error:
What am i doing wrong?
This is not a Django error. It appears it cannot find the Python module unicodedata which is part of the Python Standard Library (docs). I see that there is also a bug report about this issue (Python 2.7 on Windows, see here). On the other hand, some people there report that reinstalling their Python installation fixed the problem. You could give that a try.
notice the last line, it says import unicodedata, importError
im guessing you probably didnt install your django properly.
so reinstall it and check that django is in your "path", i believe django does this automatically when it installs but doesnt hurt to double check.
if reinstalling django still doesn't work, i suggest you uninstall python and django related stuff.
then install python, install pip, then use pip install django.
Upon trying to start a Pinax app, I receive the following error:
Error: No module named notification
Below are the steps I took
svn co http://svn.pinaxproject.com/pinax/trunk/ pinax
cd pinax/pinax/projects/basic_project
./manage.py syncdb
Any suggestions?
UPDATE:
Turns out there are some bugs in the SVN version. Downloading the latest release solved my problem. If any one has any other suggestions on getting the trunk working, they would still be appreciated.
I'd avoid the svn version all together. It's unmaintained and out of date. Instead, use the git version at http://github.com/pinax/pinax or (even better) the recently release 0.7b3 downloadable from http://pinaxproject.com
Two thoughts:
1. Check all of your imports to make sure that notification is getting into the namespace.
2. You may be missing quotes around an import path (eg. in your urls.py: (r'^test', 'mysite.notification') -- sometimes I forget the quotes around the view)
Try following the latest install instructions here:
http://github.com/pinax/pinax/blob/600d6c5ca0b45814bdc73b1264d28bb66c661ac8/INSTALL
Don't think this will work on Windows (maybe if you are using cygwin) as they are using virtualenv and pip.
Note the version has recently been upgraded to 0.7rc1
IIRC I had to add a directory or two to the Python path last time I did a fresh install of Pinax. I'm doing a fresh checkout now into a new virtualenv, I'll edit this answer if I hit any snags.
