10341	Project module loaded twice	rginda@…	nobody	"I have some initialization code in my project's {{{__init__.py}}} (the one from the same directory as settings.py), and I've notice that it's executed *twice* for each thread.  I added the following lines to my {{{__init__.py}}}...

It seems like it's loaded for the first time when manage.py loads the settings file, and second time from <http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/core/management/__init__.py#L331>.

Notice that the second time it's loaded, the module is called 'mark1.', rather than just 'mark1'.  If I switch the management code to...
{{{
    __import__(project_name)
    project_module = sys.modules[project_name]
}}}
...then my module is only loaded once."		closed	Uncategorized	1.0		duplicate			Unreviewed	0	0	0	0	0	0
