I am trying to run a cron job with a Heroku hosted website. I am using a Django back-end. I have written a custom manage.py command that works locally (status_crawl.py). I have seen a few guides and posts on how to fix this, but the suggestions did not work (such as Running Django custom manage.py task on Heroku - Importing Issues and this guide).
Even weirder is that it is recognizing the other commands. (And I managed to get the basic task to work by using runscript from the django-extensions framework). It is still bothering me though.
My basic file structure likes like:
likes:
...
management:
__init__.py
commands:
__init__.py
status_crawl.py
The traceback is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "manage.py", line 10, in <module>
execute_from_command_line(sys.argv)
File "/app/.heroku/python/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 453, in execute_from_command_line

File "/app/.heroku/python/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/utils/importlib.py", line 35, in import_module
__import__(name)
ImportError: No module named commands.status_crawl
The other weird thing is that when I run 'heroku run python manage.py help' the command is showing up as an option. It's just not running when I try to run the script myself using the manage.py command.
Thanks!
