ImportError: cannot import name 'python_2_unicode_compatible' from 'django.utils.encoding' (F:\Python38\lib\site-packages\django\utils\encoding.py)

Possible fix? from six import python_2_unicode_compatible

Here is a quick fix I used until compatibility is updated

    import six
    import django.utils.encoding
    django.utils.encoding.python_2_unicode_compatible = six.python_2_unicode_compatible

Here is a quick fix I used until compatibility is updated

    import six
    import django.utils.encoding
    django.utils.encoding.python_2_unicode_compatible = six.python_2_unicode_compatible

definitely a hacky method but it does the job until an update is made to the library

Btw I've updated https://pypi.org/project/django-compat-patcher/ with lots of new Django 3.0 and 3.1 fixes, it should solve this problem too.

where are manage.py and settings.py file ?

@raju10101997 it's an installable plugin, install it with pip and then add it to your own project, in INSTALLED_APPS setting
