I'm writing an install script that resides in django_project/install
and one of things it does, is programmatically run syncdb. My current
code for this is correct if I do:

cd ..
python
import os
os.environ["DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE"]="settings"
from django.core.management import call_command
call_command('syncdb', interactive=False)

If I copy this code into my installer, or indeed do the same as above,
but inside the django_project/install directory it fails:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/
__init__.py", line 166, in call_command
    return klass.execute(*args, **defaults)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/
base.py", line 221, in execute
    self.validate()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/
base.py", line 249, in validate
    num_errors = get_validation_errors(s, app)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/
validation.py", line 28, in get_validation_errors
    for (app_name, error) in get_app_errors().items():
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/loading.py",
line 145, in get_app_errors
    self._populate()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/loading.py",
line 60, in _populate
    self.load_app(app_name, True)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/db/models/loading.py",
line 82, in load_app
    if not module_has_submodule(app_module, 'models'):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/utils/
module_loading.py", line 14, in module_has_submodule
    for entry in package.__path__:  # No __path__, then not a package.
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '__path__'

I've tried adding the project's path to sys.path, but that doesn't
make a difference. Is there a way to do this from a sub-directory?
Thanks
