TypeError 'builtin_function_or_method' is not iterable during heroku deployment

I'm trying to deploy my first django app to heroku. I have followed all the settings steps in the guide but I run into the following Traceback during deployment:

if 'DATABASES' not in config:
TypeError: argument of type 'builtin_function_or_method' is not iterable

If I disable collectstatic then deployment runs without errors but as soon as I try to migrate my database it raises the same error. Can anyone help please?

Solution

  • It turns out I was missing a () in my django settings file: 

    django_heroku.settings(locals())

    instead of:

    django_heroku.settings(locals)
