python manage.py migrate: No module named ‘muypicky.base’

Background: I’m taking a beginners Django course and I’ve run into an issue. The following command isn’t working in Terminal.

• Running on Mac
• Virtual environment
• Taking UDEMY Course: try-django-v1-11-python-web-development

Command: python manage.py migrate

Terminal Output:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'muypicky.base'

Answer

After going through your files, i found that you haven’t imported local.py and production.py in your __init__.py add the following code to __init__.py file inside settings folder

from .base import *

from .production import *

try:
   from .local import *
except:
   pass
