Django Cronjob

Question

Hi there,

I've had a look through the questions already and tried the answers, but to no avail.

I'm trying to run a custom django management command via cron, which already works via the command line.

Here's my cronjob, which doesn't seem to work:

PYTHONPATH=/home/paulw/webapps/paulv2/lib:/home/paulw/webapps/paulv2/lib/python2.7:/home/paulw/webapps/paulv2:/home/paulw/webapps/paulv2/<project>
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=<project>.settings

* * * * * /usr/local/bin/python2.7 /home/paulw/webapps/paulv2/<project>/manage.py updateblog

My actual settings file is location in /home/paulw/webapps/paulv2/<project>/paulw/settings.py as opposed to the level above, I think due to using Django 1.4.

Any help appreciated.

Hi,

You may want to try changing this line:

DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=paulwitherden.settings

to:

DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=paulw.settings

If this doesn't work, please open a ticket, so we can take a look at your settings and try to fix them for you.
