Hi @NaveenNguyen, I never seen this, it could be and error due to SELinux, OS restriction or missing file.

Could you run $ python manage.py check to see if there is any error?

Also, do you follow the installation steps? maybe is a dependency issue: https://1modm.github.io/petereport/django/

@NaveenNguyen it seems an issue with the sqlite db path. Which django or python version do you have? I recommend to run the environment with pipenv as specified in https://1modm.github.io/petereport/django/:

Install

1. Clone the project and cd into PeTeReport: cd petereport/
2. Create a new virtual environment and installing dependencies: pipenv install
3. Run the virtual environment: pipenv shell
4. Go to Django PeTeReport App: cd app/
5. Create the database: python manage.py migrate
6. Make the latest database changes: python manage.py makemigrations
7. Super user admin/P3t3r3p0rt will be created, but you can create a new super user: python manage.py createsuperuser
8. Populate the CWE data python manage.py loaddata config/cwe-list.json

Start the server

1. Run the virtual environment: pipenv shell
2. Go to Django PeTeReport App: cd app/
3. Start the django server: python manage.py runserver --insecure or python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000 --insecure
4. Go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/
5. Login with any of users created admin/P3t3r3p0rt (administrator) and viewer/v13w3r (viewer) or the user credentials configured in the configuration file
6. Try harder
7. Create a report
8. Close up and stop the server: Ctrl + C
