Python – Pycharm error Django is not importable in this environment

djangopycharmpython

I'm getting the following errors in Pycharm.

Error: Django is not importable in this environment

It used to work well but I moved the project and virtualenv to other directory and the error appeared. It's weird because if I run the project ignoring the configuration settings warning that I get, works fine.

The problem is that now, Pycharm is not finding the project interperter.

The command that Pycharm is running is:

/Users/plorenzo/../gestorSchools/venv/bin/python3.4 /Users/plorenzo/../gestorSchools/schoolsManager/manage.py runserver 8000

The virtualenv is activated.

My $PATH is:

/Users/plorenzo/../gestorSchools/venv/bin:/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/X11/bin

and my $PYTHONPATH:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin/python3.4

I spent a few days trying to find the solution but I couldn't find it.

Yet another case, where my virtualenv did have Django installed, but Pycharm would still display this error.

I eventually found out that the same virtualenv path had been duplicated in the list of available interpreters. Removing all of them and re-adding fixed it.

The duplication happened after I copied the .idea from another machine, and re-created the virtualenv from Pycharm although it was already listed as a (broken) interpreter.
