I have same problem from a few week ago. I assume the new version(djangocms-installer==0.9.x) have problem because when I created a project using default djangocms-installer(==0.9.0) like "djangcms -p . mysite", there was no questions about DB, django version, or etc, then error...

Try old version "pip install djangocms-installer==0.8.x"(x=12,11,10,...)

Now, I am using "djangocms-installer==0.8.12" without any error.

Try running this command instead:

djangocms -w web

This will start the djangocms-installer wizard and run you through various settings, dependencies, and create a superuser for you to log in with. When it finishes, you should have a running instance of django-cms within ./web/.

You can access the new instance by going into ./web/ and running runserver as usual:

$ source venv/bin/activate
(venv) $ python manage.py runserver
