does anyone have an idea what is going on ? or how to fix it

Solution

  • The problem is with your logging configuration in settings.py.

    If you do not care about logging at the moment, you can delete the entire section that looks like this:

    LOGGING = {
...
...
...
}

    or replace it with this default example from the django docs site: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/logging/#an-example
