Docker-compose - could not import settings 'crowd_server.settings' #15

Open ghost opened 8 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

I tried using docker-compose to deploy an AMPCrowd instance on EC2.

Things look good up to the point that docker starts to call manage.py. I did create a private_settings.py file using my AMT credentials.

Here is the output up at the point mange.py is called.

The error message suggests that the problem comes when trying to import the uuid module.

Some quick googling turned up this thread. Are you running python 2.7.11? If so, the patch suggested here might fix it--maybe place it in ampcrowd/crowd_server/settings.py?

If that works, it would be great to contribute the patch to the codebase as a pull request.
