django.db.utils.DatabaseError: file is not a database

I tried to create the following file at the same directory(hp/myhhp/test.py),and it works well.

import sqlite3

dbname = 'TEST.db'
conn = sqlite3.connect(dbname)
cur = conn.cursor()

cur.execute('SELECT * FROM persons')

for row in cur:
    print(row)

cur.close()
conn.close()

What is the point? Im looking forward to your answer.

Answer 1

you have to say python manage.py runserver , not python python manage.py startapp runserver:) thats why u are getting error.
