Short answer =========== Use the following instead:
cd <your_project_dir> python manage.py syncdb Long Answer =========== The DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE variable is usually assigned the following value: 'geonode.settings'. Since you are extending GeoNode with a new project, the correct value is: yourproject.settings You can set it up in the terminal, like: export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=yourproject.settings and then run the commands with django-admin.py. The more common option, however is to use the provided shortcut called manage.py in the root of your project, it will automatically pick up the settings.py file next to it, for example: python manage.py syncdb In the geonode package we go one step further and create a command called 'geonode' in /usr/bin/ (or /usr/sbin) that activates the virtualenv and calls: django-admin.py (your parameters) --settings=geonode.settings More detailed info can be found in the Django docs[1] Happy hacking, Ariel.
