How can i get rid of these errors when trying to start a Django project?
i am trying to start a django project using the django-admin startproject but it keeps bringing this error Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\runpy.py", line 196, in run_module_as_main return run_code(code, main_globals, None, File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\runpy.py", line 86, in run_code exec(code, run_globals) File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\Scripts\django-admin.exe_main.py", line 7, in File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\core\management_init.py", line 371, in execute_from_command_line utility.execute() File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\core\management_init.py", line 365, in execute self.fetch_command(subcommand).run_from_argv(self.argv) File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\core\management\base.py", line 288, in run_from_argv self.execute(*args, **cmd_options) File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\core\management\base.py", line 335, in execute output = self.handle(*args, **options) File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\core\management\commands\startproject.py", line 20, in handle super().handle('project', project_name, target, **options) File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\core\management\templates.py", line 117, in handle django.setup() File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django_init_.py", line 16, in setup from django.urls import set_script_prefix File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\urls_init_.py", line 1, in from .base import ( File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\urls\base.py", line 8, in from .exceptions import NoReverseMatch, Resolver404 File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\urls\exceptions.py", line 1, in from django.http import Http404 File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\http_init_.py", line 5, in from django.http.response import ( File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\http\response.py", line 13, in from django.core.serializers.json import DjangoJSONEncoder File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\core\serializers_init_.py", line 23, in from django.core.serializers.base import SerializerDoesNotExist File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\core\serializers\base.py", line 6, in from django.db import models File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\db\models_init_.py", line 3, in from django.db.models.aggregates import * # NOQA File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\db\models\aggregates.py", line 5, in from django.db.models.expressions import Case, Func, Star, When File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\db\models\expressions.py", line 486, in class TemporalSubtraction(CombinedExpression): File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\db\models\expressions.py", line 487, in TemporalSubtraction output_field = fields.DurationField() File "C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\django\db\models\fields_init_.py", line 155, in init if isinstance(choices, collections.Iterator): AttributeError: module 'collections' has no attribute 'Iterator'
how can i fix this?because at first i created a virtual environment inwhich i installed django and created a project using the same command i did not get the error but when i tried to run the python manage.py runserver command i got this error (venv) C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\DEV\trydjango\venv>python manage.py runserver C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\python.exe: can't open file 'C:\Users\GAbraham.AECIGROUP\DEV\trydjango\venv\manage.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
You should be in the project's root folder in order to run the command python manage.py runserver
According to your error, you are somewhere in venv folder.
Suppose your django app's name is example which is present in the desktop, then you should be inside the example folder in the desktop. The path should come something like
C:\Users\{username}\Desktop\example
After navigating to the folder, just check if there is a file named manage.py. If yes, then just open cmd with that folder as the working directory, and run the command
python manage.py runserver
Hope this helps!
