Python: can't open file '/app/manage.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory - Django - Docker Compose about cookiecutter-django HOT 8 CLOSED

I faced same problem. I updated Use the WSL 2 based engine to True in docker setting > General
It works properly.

from cookiecutter-django.

How come that this project template does not contain the string management.py nor the file with that name?

@foarsitter I didn't check it but when I used docker desktop without wsl2 option. It makes same error.

Using this template cannot result in that error as long as this template does not provide that file nor that string. However, it does provide a file called manage.py. So can you check your error again?

My error was about manage.py blabla. I will check it asap and leave logs soon.

I don't know where the problem specifically is, but everything seemed fine after I reinstalled the docker desktop. I have found a temporary solution to this problem, although I have not investigated the specific cause.
In local.yml or product.yml, in service: (django)

• drive: Currently it is configured as (.:/app:z), please change it to (./app). Delete z and ":". I hope it helps anyone who is having the same problem.

   django: &django
       build:
           context: .
           dockerfile: ./compose/local/django/Dockerfile
       image: novel_local_django
       container_name: novel_local_django
       dependent:
           - postgres
           - redo
           - mailbox
       mass:

Change into:

umm.. In my case, when I use hyper-v for docker engine in docker desktop windows version, /app folder is always empty. I am not sure what happens.

Assuming the original issue was solved, it will be automatically closed now.
