Hey there!
I'm having some real trouble trying to run an initial migration of my DB. I've set SECRET_KEY in <venv>/bin/postactivate and if i echo $SECRET_KEY it prints it out. However....When running manage.py migrate i get [The SECRET_KEY setting must not be empty].
(myv) 01:32 ~/annies360app (master)$ python manage.py migrate

This is my first python app and first time deploying! Has anyone had a similar issue or could anyone point me in the right direction? I've searched the forums but I can't find a fix. My WSGI file seems to be configured correctly, as i can hit soulfulwater.pythonanywhere.com okay.
Thanks
