python heroku syncdb error

Question

Disclosure: I have no idea what im doing.

I'm getting the following error. Could not import settings 'mvp_landing.settings' (Is it on sys.path? Is there an import error in the settings file?): No module named dj_database_url

I've looked up this answer and most lead to looking at sys.path files and putting the settings file into one of these paths.

/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/pip-1.5.6-py2.7.egg
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python27.zip
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/plat-darwin
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/plat-mac
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/plat-mac/lib-scriptpackages
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-tk
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-old
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/PyObjC
/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages

^^ I have no idea where these are located or how to move my settings file into one of these paths.

The error explains exactly what is going on: there is no module named "dj_database_url", which means you have not installed it.

You need to do that by putting that line into your requirements.txt file. If you're running locally, you can do pip install dj_database_url.
