在Heroku之后Django Runserver无法正常工作

Question

I've successfully posted my Django web app on Heroku. But now I want to run the server on my localhost. Earlier I could use "python manage.py runserver --insecure" but now I get the following error.

shashank@s-machine:~/development/hellowebapp/hellowebapp$ python manage.py runserver
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/django/contrib/sites/models.py:78: RemovedInDjango19Warning: Model class django.contrib.sites.models.Site doesn't declare an explicit app_label and either isn't in an application in INSTALLED_APPS or else was imported before its application was loaded. This will no longer be supported in Django 1.9.
  class Site(models.Model):

Here is my WSGI.py

"""
WSGI config for hellowebapp project.

It exposes the WSGI callable as a module-level variable named ``application``.

from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application
from whitenoise.django import DjangoWhiteNoise

os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "hellowebapp.settings_production")

application = get_wsgi_application()
application = DjangoWhiteNoise(application)

Answer 1

From the dumped error report it is clear to me that your problem is coming from lack of the the whitenoise module. from the last line here >>

File "/home/shashank/development/hellowebapp/hellowebapp/hellowebapp/wsgi.py", 
line 13, in <module>
from whitenoise.django import DjangoWhiteNoise

django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: WSGI application 
'hellowebapp.wsgi.application' could not be loaded; Error importing 
 module: 'No module named whitenoise.django'

First adivice:

1. Make sure that the Virtualenv you used is active, I am assuming that you have already installed the whitenoise package from pypi in that virtualenv.
