Not able to create super user with Django manage.py
If you run
$ python manage.py createsuperuserSuperuser creation skipped due to not running in a TTY. You can run manage.py createsuperuser in your project to create one manually. from Git Bash and face the above error message try to append winpty i.e. for example:$ winpty python manage.py createsuperuserUsername (leave blank to use '...'):
To be able to run python commands as usual on windows as well what I normally do is appending an alias line to the ~/.profile file i.e.
MINGW64 ~$ cat ~/.profile alias python='winpty python'After doing so, either source the ~/.profile file or simply restart the terminal and the initial command python manage.py createsuperuser should work as expected!
I had same problem when trying to create superuser in the docker container with command:sudo docker exec -i <container_name> sh. Adding option -t solved the problem:
sudo docker exec -it <container_name> sh
In virtualenv, for creating super-user for Django project related to git-bash use the command:
winpty python manage.py createsuperuser.
