Re: What would cause an app to not register?

Hello,

I'm not expert but have seen this behavior when I have a bad import.
I would start by trying ./manage.py shell and copy past your imports
from models and then views or other imports. It's almost always been
a bad import when I've seen this and ./manage.py syncd will fail
silently and ./manage.py validate won't find any errors. Hope this
helps let us know what you find please.
