Django 1.7 conflicting models

Question

I install my application in "project/apps/myapp" folder. Both apps and myapp folders have init.py files(Without any of them there is module missing error). Now I've the error:

Exception Type: RuntimeError at /
    Exception Value: Conflicting 'person' models in application 'resume': <class
 'apps.resume.models.Person'> and <class 'resume.models.Person'>.

Django import the same model with two different pathes. How can I fix it?

Full error log:

Answer 1

Instead of importing the all project then the app then the module inside the app just import the app which is inside the project then the module.

Instead of

from webproject.app import model

Use

from app import model

or

from app.models import Staffs

I think this bug report (turns out it's a feature) is related to your problem.

For me the problem was resolved by importing from resume.models only, rather than apps.resume.models. So search for "from apps." in your project and replace it.

(For me, removing __init__.py or changing the PYTHONPATH caused other problems, I imagine that's common.)
