I am trying to run this python module

from settings import PROJECT_ROOT DEBUG = True TEMPLATE_DEBUG = DEBUG DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3', 'NAME' : os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'db_name.sqlite3'), } } # Make this unique, and don't share it with anybody. SECRET_KEY = 'sdfgtardyure34654356435' # Python dotted path to the WSGI application used by Django's runserver; added in v1.4 WSGI_APPLICATION = 'wsgi.application' ############### PYSEC specific variables # assumes this directory exists DATA_DIR = "%s/pysec/data/" % PROJECT_ROOT 

But whenever i try to run it by F5 i get this

Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Python27\pysec-master\local_settings-example.py", line 11, in <module> 'NAME' : os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'db_name.sqlite3'), NameError: name 'os' is not defined 

The module lives in the C:\Python27\pysec-master and i got pysec for here

Do you know what must i do to run the module with success?

Just add:

import os 

in the beginning, before:

from settings import PROJECT_ROOT 

This will import the python's module os, which apparently is used later in the code of your module without being imported.

The problem is that you forgot to import os. Add this line of code:

import os 

And everything should be fine. Hope this helps!
