I recently installed Django to use as a web framework and I am trying use the command python manage.py dbshell
to access the database shell for SQLite as said in this post: How do I access the db shell for SQLite on a Django project?. It gives me the error CommandError: You appear not to have the 'sqlite3' program installed or on your path.
I downloaded the sqlite.exe file and saved it in the directory C:\sqlite\sqlite3.exe
. I then added that directory to my path in the command prompt, but it still gives the same error. Am I not adding it to my path correctly? I am using Windows 10 64 bit, but with python 32 bit installed.
I downloaded the file from https://www.sqlite.org/download.html, and I downloaded the file sqlite-tools-win32-x86-3120200.zip
After you add the directory to your PATH
, close and reopen Command Prompt. This will make the changes to PATH
available to your current Command Prompt session.
