ImportError: No module named django.core.management when using manage.py

Question

I'm trying to run python manage.py runserver on a Django application I have and I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "manage.py", line 8, in <module>

 from django.core.management import execute_from_command_line

ImportError: No module named django.core.management

Here is the output of pip freeze | grep -i django to show I do in fact have Django installed:

Django==1.6.5

django-cached-authentication-middleware==0.2.0

django-cors-headers==1.1.0

django-htmlmin==0.7.0

django-static-precompiler==0.9

djangorestframework==2.3.14

Also, trying to run /usr/local/bin/python2.7 manage.py runserver yields the same error.

Answer 1

To fix my problem I used the following line in my .zprofile:

export PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages

I was trying to import Django and it couldn't be found, and doing the above solved the issue.
