#30479 closed Bug

Autoreloader with StatReloader doesn't track changes in manage.py. — at Version 1

Reported by: Keryn Knight Owned by: nobody

Description (last modified by Mariusz Felisiak)

This is a bit convoluted, but here we go.

Environment (OSX 10.11):

$ python -V
Python 3.6.2
$ pip -V
pip 19.1.1
$ pip install Django==2.2.1

Steps to reproduce:

  • Run a server python manage.py runserver
  • Edit the manage.py file, e.g. add print(): 
    def main():
    print('sth')
    os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'ticket_30479.settings')
    ...

Under 2.1.8 (and prior), this will trigger the auto-reloading mechanism. Under 2.2.1, it won't. As far as I can tell from the django.utils.autoreload log lines, it never sees the manage.py itself.
