Problems with Pillow and Django recognizing it -Intermediate Concepts


#1

I was having problems installing Pillow (actually have been having problems with pillow before I started this book when I was learning python - thought I sorted it out back then but I guess I just skipped the topic). But today I found a solution for installing it! Yay! For linux ubuntu users I found this helped me:

I used this:
sudo apt-get install python-dev
then installed Pillow as per the instructions. It seemed to work. But for some reason django isn’t picking up that I installed it??? Please see my below screenshot:

You will see that I “successfully installed Pillow” at the top of the top terminal window. Then I tried to to makemigrations and you see that its complaining that Pillow isn’t installed??
Also on the lower terminal window the server also spit out a similar message.

Following the instructions django is spitting back at me only tells me I’ve already installed Pillow.

See screenshot below.

Anyone with any ideas? Kinda stuck :( (but good time to grab a coffee :))

UPDATE

Found that it was my previous pillow install that was messing it up. I ended up un-installing it and eventually got it working. Phew!
