i tried to check my packages if there is different than the req.txt but its all same and created a runtime.txt and i don't know where to check the error because its working fine locally
I cannot see your code, but I have faced similar import issues when moving over to ASGI from WSGI. I think this can be solved with how you are doing your imports
from django.core.asgi import get_asgi_application
# Initialize Django ASGI application early to ensure the AppRegistry
# is populated before importing code that may import ORM models.
django_asgi_app = get_asgi_application()
from posts.models import PublishedPost
from ... import ...
from ... import ...
In general I suggest using uvicorn and gunicorn over daphne for ASGI applications. They are more lightweight and, in my opinion, more robust than django's default counter-part.
