Django Installer Issue

When I run it manually, I receive a permission denied. I then (just for testing) chmod 777 the manage.py file. After that, if I try to run ./manage.py syncdb I then receive the following error:

django.core.management import execute_from_command_line ImportError: No module named django.core.management

After receiving that error, I then run: -sh-4.1$ export PYTHONPATH=/home/username/public_html/lib/python

After that, I am able to run the manage.py file and receive no prompts for an email address:

-sh-4.1$ ./manage.py syncdb Creating tables ... Installing custom SQL ... Installing indexes ... Installed 0 object(s) from 0 fixture(s)

On the GUI side of things (virtualmin in the browser), when I run the script installer for Python 1.5.x, I get the following:

Found http://www.djangoproject.com:80/download/1.5.5/tarball/ in cache .. Found http://www.saddi.com:80/software/flup/dist/flup-1.0.tar.gz in cache ..

Now installing Django version 1.5.4 ..

It freezes after saying "Now installing Django version 1.5.4. When I kill the manage.py PID in shell, the GUI then says:

Database initialization failed at E-mail address : (leave blank to use 'username'): username Email address: More information on using this script can be found at http://www.djangoproject.com/. .. installation was only partially complete. Re-loading Webmin .. .. done

Thank you and I hope I have given you enough details. James

Thank you Jamie,

I have tried to do the above and I am unable to download the new script installer for django. I have done what you said above, and the new update to django 1.5.5 from 1.5.4 is retreived. However, this does not seem to resolve the issue on newly created virtual servers. I checked the source on django.pl and it seems to be the same file. Am I missing something?

Great! I was able to apply the changes "E-Mail" to "Email" in the django.pl script as you mentioned, and that fixed the problem. Jamie, my sincere thanks for helping me with this matter. Thank you

Hello,

Django 1.6 has been released, and I see that the virtualmin system updated the install scripts accordingly. However, the same database initialization issue is now occurring with 1.6 in a slightly different way

When upgrading from 1.5.5 to 1.6, there are no errors. When performing a new Django 1.6 installation, the following error occurs:

Database initialization failed at yes.no : Traceback (most recent call last): File "manage.py", line 10, in execute_from_command_line(sys.argv) File "/home/debugging/public_html/lib/python/django/core/management/init.py", line 399, in execute_from_command_line utility.execute() File "/home/debugging/public_html/lib/python/django/core/management/init.py", line 392, in execute self.fetch_command(subcommand).run_from_argv(self.argv) File "/home/debugging/public_html/lib/python/django/core/management/base.py", line 242, in run_from_argv self.execute(*args, options.dict) File "/home/debugging/public_html/lib/python/django/core/management/base.py", line 285, in execute output = self.handle(*args, **options) File "/home/debugging/public_html/lib/python/django/core/management/base.py", line 415, in handle return self.handle_noargs(options) File "/home/debugging/public_html/lib/python/django/core/management/commands/syncdb.py", line 57, in handle_noargs cursor = connection.cursor() File "/home/debugging/public_html/lib/python/django/db/backends/init.py", line 157, in cursor cursor = self.make_debug_cursor(self._cursor()) File "/home/debugging/public_html/lib/python/django/db/backends/init.py", line 129, in _cursor self.ensure_connection() File "/home/debugging/public_html/lib/python/django/db/backends/init.py", line 124, in ensure_connection self.connect() File "/home/debugging/public_html/lib/python/django/db/utils.py", line 99, in exit six.reraise(dj_exc_type, dj_exc_value, traceback) File "/home/debugging/public_html/lib/python/django/db/backends/init.py", line 124, in ensure_connection self.connect() File "/home/debugging/public_html/lib/python/django/db/backends/init.py", line 112, in connect self.connection = self.get_new_connection(conn_params) File "/home/debugging/public_html/lib/python/django/db/backends/mysql/base.py", line 435, in get_new_connection conn = Database.connect(**conn_params) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/MySQLdb/__init__.py", line 81, in Connect return Connection(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/MySQLdb/connections.py", line 187, in __init__ super(Connection, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs2) django.db.utils.OperationalError: (1045, "Access denied for user 'debugging'@'localhost' (using password: YES)")

Your assistance is greatly appreciated, I'm not sure about what to modify in the django script installer in this case, it seems as if the MySQL information is not getting picked up. Thank you

Hello,

Yes that's just a user I created to test with after I noticed it stopped working.

Thank you Jamie, this has resolved the issue.
