Psycopg2 error when i run my django project inside a container on windows
The psycopg2
error when running a Django project inside a container on Windows is likely due to a missing dependency required by psycopg2
.
To resolve this issue, you can install the necessary dependencies in your Dockerfile or docker-compose.yml file.
Here are the steps you can follow to resolve this issue:
Find the version of
psycopg2
required by your Django project. You can check this in yourrequirements.txt
file or by running thepip freeze
command.In your Dockerfile or docker-compose.yml file, add the following lines to install the necessary dependencies:
sqlRUN apk update && apk add postgresql-dev gcc python3-dev musl-dev
RUN pip install psycopg2==<version>
Where <version>
is the version of psycopg2
required by your Django project.
- Rebuild your Docker container using the following command:
cssdocker-compose up --build
- Start your Django project inside the container using the
docker-compose up
command.
By following these steps, the necessary dependencies should be installed inside the container and the psycopg2
error should be resolved.
