djongo' isn't an available database backend
djongo' isn't an available database backend
django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: 'djongo' isn't an available database backend.
Try using 'django.db.backends.XXX', where XXX is one of:
'mysql', 'oracle', 'postgresql', 'sqlite3'
You haven't installed djongo. pip install djongo or pip3 install djongo.
i got the same problem as well, both commands doesnt work for me. my error: django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: 'django.db.backends.mysql' isn't an available database backend. even though i created new database in mysql
DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql', 'NAME': 'blog', 'USER': 'root', 'PASSWORD': '******', 'HOST': '127.0.0.1', 'PORT': 3306, }
what could be the solution?
well I solved problem by removing virtual environment and reinstalling all the packages again. it worked for me then, I have now access to mysql database
well I solved problem by removing virtual environment and reinstalling all the packages again. it worked for me then, I have now access to mysql database
and how to do that? please tell me...
activating virtual env source venv/bin/activate
to deactivate simply type deactivate
P.S There is no command for deleting your virtual environment. Simply deactivate it and rid your application of its artifacts by recursively removing it.(refs link:- https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11005457/how-do-i-remove-delete-a-virtualenv)
The same, djongo worked fine, but after a few migrations there was an error:
django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: 'djongo' isn't an available database backend.
Try using 'django.db.backends.XXX', where XXX is one of:
'mysql', 'oracle', 'postgresql', 'sqlite3'
django 2.2.1
UPD: I found the problem, my pycharm after restarting messed up the environment and downloading packages from the other, in which was not installed djongo, I recommend that you check the path your python environment (echo $PATH && echo $PYTHONPATH) or specify the full path: /your-environment-path/bin/python manage.py runserver or run: $ pip list
django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: 'django.db.backends.cx_Oracle' isn't an available database backend. Try using 'django.db.backends.XXX', where XXX is one of: 'mysql', 'oracle', 'postgresql', 'sqlite3'
I got same problem....I installed Oracle database...can you explain how to establish connection in settings.py file....
Having the same problem, I have verified that djongo is installed and it shows up in pip freeze / pip list:
Package Version
----------- -------
dataclasses 0.6
Django 2.2.2
djongo 1.2.32
dnspython 1.16.0
pip 19.0.3
pytz 2019.1
setuptools 40.8.0
sqlparse 0.3.0
Not sure if this is a windows issue or not. Env:
- Win 10
- Python 3.7
- Virtual Env
- Pycharm
Absolutely same situation. Is there a way to solve it?

Following the reinstalling packages advice, this worked for me:
pip uninstall -y `pip freeze`
pip install -r requirements.txt
If you do not have a requirements file already you can create it with pip freeze > requirements.txt
I had the same issue, and I solved it by copy djongo folder to my project. and it's work.
Same here. djongo is installed with pip under virtual environment, yet it isn't picked up. Uninstalling it and reinstalling it doesn't work at all and the virtual environment is completely broken.
Djongo is installed with pip under virtual environment, yet it isn't picked up. My django version: 3.0
Guys, Please Use django 2.2.8 . Because djongo is not compatible with Django's latest version 3.0.
Cheers
I still have the same problem after downgrading Django to v 2.2.8. I will come back here if I find out a solution.
Finally I could make it by creating a new project based on Django v2.2 so the "djongo' isn't an available database backend" error was solved. After that, I had to install pymongo[srv] in order to complete the whole setup, I ran the following command: 'python -m pip install pymongo[srv]'. However, I could not fix the issue in my original project, even although I downgraded the Django version to 2.2 (and made sure the modification took effect) the "available database backend problem" was still there. I just redid the project from scratch by copy/pasting and installing the same version of everything that I had previously installed so I am not sure if the problem was the Django version or anything else...
The problem is with the latest version of Django. Downgrade it to the later version i.e. version 2. command:pip install django==2
@Nebotxavi Could you Please share the screenshots of the error that you are facing?

Was just going through the tut for Django and wanted to try it with "djongo". Using conda for my package manager. Got same issue but then I downgraded to Django 2.2 suggested by @Nebotxavi
pip uninstall django
pip install django==2.2
python manage.py migrate
Was able to verify the creation of the collection on mongo

This error occurs because the django utils.py file does not recognize that django is an available backend, to solve this error , please follow these steps... 1 . Go to C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38-32\Lib\site-packages and find the djongo folder . 2. Now cut and paste the djongo folder in the C:\Users\aman\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38-32\Lib\site - packages\django\db\backends directory . 3. Now u might be getting the error cannot import six from django.utils. For resolving that go to C:\Users\aman\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38-32\Lib\site - packages\django\db\backends\djongo\operations.py file and replace the line from django.utils import six , datetime to from django.utils import datetime and beneath that just write import six . 4. Now in the settings.py file of your django project add the lines DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.djongo', 'NAME': 'your-database-name', } } 5. That should resolve the problem ....
For me it worked with
Django==3.0.3
djongo==1.3.1
pymongo==3.10.1
Basically when you pip3 install djongo you get required dependencies and things works fine even with Django 3.*
Using python3.8 in my virtual environment fixed my issues with djongo isn't an available database backend
Uninstall pymongo and installing the 3.7.2 version, it worked for me:
#pip uninstall pymongo #pip install pymongo==3.7.2
