AppRegistryNotReady: The translation infrastructure cannot be initialized

Question

When I try to access to my app, I'm getting the following error.

AppRegistryNotReady: The translation infrastructure cannot be initialized before the apps registry is ready. Check that you don't make non-lazy gettext calls at import time

Here is my wsgi.py file:

"""

It exposes the WSGI callable as a module-level variable named ``application``.

I faced the same error. Following worked for me. In your wsgi file change the last line to :

from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application
application = get_wsgi_application()

This have been changed since Django 1.6 to newer version. Here is the post that helped to deploy the django app.

If you want to use Nginx as webserver to deploy django app follow this post.
