ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'App Name' when using Django and Gunicorn on a heroku server

[abinpaulr9747]

What I am trying to do here is setup a sample django app in heroku server. When running the app with gunicorn I get this error

This is what's in the log.

In the settings.py I am including the apps like this

INSTALLED_APPS = [ 'django.contrib.admin', 'django.contrib.auth', 'django.contrib.contenttypes', 'django.contrib.sessions', 'django.contrib.messages', 'django.contrib.staticfiles', 'whitenoise.runserver_nostatic', 'rest_framework', 'leads', 'frontend', 'knox', 'accounts' ]

Below is my folder structure

I am new to django
Please help as I have found no solution for this with my limited knowledge and hours of browsing

Same! Somebody help us! I've been on this for almost 2 days now.

[san425]

Have you fixed it yet? If yes, how?

[san425]

Hahaha! This is a very silly mistake, at least I think it is. But you should check the ".gitignore" file. If you used the template 'Python' Github will ignore it causing Heroku to not pull the app from Github. I spent a whole week trying to fix this. 🤦‍♂️

[san425]

Btw, to fix it, either delete the file or just change the template to the proper one. Your app must consist of something other than the Template.
