[Question #224789]: New Graphite Installation, empty SECRET_KEY - can't configure

 

New question #224789 on Graphite:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/224789

Just installed Graphite on a new system, used pip to install Django. The current Django version is 1.5.

When I try to set up the web app, running manage.py fails:

python manage.py syncdb
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py:465: DeprecationWarning: The 'execute_manager' function is deprecated, you likely need to update your 'manage.py'; please see the Django 1.4 release notes (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/1.4/).

This is on a RHEL 6 64 bit system, Python 2.6.6.

What is wrong?

Thanks!
