[Question #252138]: Cannot initialize the database with django-admin.py syncdb --settings=graphite.settings

 

New question #252138 on Graphite:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/252138

I am following INSTALL and am trying to initialize the database.

It says to do the following:
export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:$GRAPHITE_ROOT/webapp
django-admin.py syncdb --settings=graphite.settings

On syncdb, I got the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/django-admin.py", line 5, in <module>
    management.execute_from_command_line()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 399, in execute_from_command_line

    % (self.SETTINGS_MODULE, e)
ImportError: Could not import settings 'graphite.settings' (Is it on sys.path? Is there an import error in the settings file?): No module named graphite.settings

I've tried to reinstall graphite from source, or from pip but same thing happens.
