When there's an `ImportError` in my `user.py` file, (like when forgetting to install a third-party module,) Django seems to swallow it, and instead of raising an exception with a meaningful stacktrace, it just makes some things not work. (e.g. trying `python manage.py migrate` doesn't work, but `python manage.py shell` does.) This makes it hard to debug and confusing, especially for my non-Django-expert coworkers. Please show a meaningful traceback if there's an `ImportError`." Uncategorized closed Uncategorized 1.6 Normal needsinfo Unreviewed 0 0 0 0 0 0
